2009 Contest Rules and Information
It's time again for the Miami University Office of International Education's annual Study Abroad Photography Contest! Miami students, faculty and staff who have participated in study abroad programs between summer 2008 and spring 2009 are welcome to submit photographs for consideration in this year's contest. The deadline for submission is Friday, September 4, 2009. The top photographs will be displayed in MacMillan Hall starting September 16.
This year's categories are:
- Student Life
Miami students abroad, classmates from all over the world, classroom experiences, field trips, student activities and organizations
- People, Cultures and Traditions
The way of life in your study abroad location
- Study Abroad Views
Streets, architecture, landscapes
- Studying in Unique Places
What's special or different about the region/country/city where you studied abroad? What are the best things about that place? What do you think more people should know about that place?
Please send no more than one photograph per category, in high-resolution electronic format (either from a digital camera or a high-res scanned version of a film picture - photographs will be enlarged to 8x10"). Include a title for each photograph, as well as the location, the category, your name and the study abroad program you were on. Photographs can be sent by email to Sarah McNitt.
There are no prizes (except fame and bragging rights), although the top photos in each category (as chosen by our office) will be displayed on our website and in MacMillan Hall.
We reserve the right to reassign your photos to a more appropriate category as we see fit. By submitting your photos to the contest, you give Miami University and the Office of International Education permission to use your submissions for publicity and promotional purposes, including brochures, websites and presentations.
Thanks for participating! We look forward to another great Study Abroad Photography Contest this year.
