- All attendees will be able to view the RISE presentations on our RISE 2022 Virtual Expo platform prior to the start of the event without creating a login.
- In order to participate in video conversations with student presenters or leave comments on their presentations, you will have to create a login on the site. Instructions will follow closer to the event date!
- Judges will be pre-registered on the site and provided instructions on accessing their assigned student presentations. They, too, however, can view presentations prior to login — but must login in order to video interview, comment, and chat.

- 12:00 PM ET- 1:00 PM ET: RISE Awards Announced
Registration
- If your abstract is accepted for a full presentation, we’ll share a link to the RISE Presentation platform. You’ll create a login using your Northeastern email and upload your presentation. You’ll use this login to share your work during the Live Question and Answer session to which you’ve been assigned on RISE Day.
- We’ll open the RISE Presentation site up a few days prior to the event so that you can become familiar with navigating your way around the site.
- You or at least one representative of your project need to be present to showcase your work LIVE during the day of RISE. Whatever time you signed up for while submitting your abstract is your Live Question and Answer time slot.
- If you are able to stay and chat with judges and attendees beyond your required two-hour presentation slot, wonderful!
Attire
- Business attire is required. Please be sure to keep your camera on and be prepared to speak to judges and other attendees.
Finalists
- We’ll be in touch with finalists directly over email after the conclusion of RISE judging. Be sure to check your email.
- The RISE Awards will be announced on Friday, April 15 at Noon.
Network and Look Around
- Each presenter is required to have their materials judged during at least one of our two two-hour time slots.
- After you present, be sure to visit our networking lounges and connect with your peers and other attendees.
Schedule
We’ll open the RISE 2022 Virtual Platform a week prior to the event’s start, so that you can view presentations, text presenters questions, and make preliminary evaluations.
On the day of RISE, judges will have live video conversations with their assigned presenters. Only after speaking with students over video should judges enter their scores.
Judges can select one of two time periods for speaking with students: 10:00 AM ET – 12:00 PM ET or 2:00 PM ET to 4:00 PM ET. We will assign judges as best we can to their areas of interest — but RISE is an interdisciplinary event where we’ve asked students to speak outside of their fields. With this in mind, judges can expect to also review projects a bit farther afield.

Timing
- Be mindful of time spent with each presenter and mingling with fellow judges in order to ensure final scores are submitted at the end of your session. If scores are not submitted by the deadline, presenters become ineligible for awards. Hit submit!
Materials
- Everything you need for judging will be available through our RISE 2022 Virtual Expo platform. Navigate the platform to review presentations, text or video chat with presenters, connect with other attendees, and complete your judging. You only need to bring yourself and your curiosity!
Lunch
- We’ll be sharing a lunch voucher with all registered judges. We hope you will enjoy it during the day of RISE — or during our announcement of the RISE Awardees the following day.
