I presented our project with my team in the '28th International conference on Processing and Fabrication of Advanced Materials' - pfam28 at VIT, Chennai. Due to Covid-19 we were made to present it online. Our paper was declared the best paper in one of the tracks which was really unexpected since we were just a bunch of UG students.
Online presentation was fairly easy, and we answered our questions well in the end. But on the other side I feel it didn't really help, since I didn't get the experience of attending an 'International Conference'. Then again I don't really know what to expect since this was my first time attending one.
Coming to the question, our project was based in manufacturing, but I'm interested in pursuing FEA/ Simulations which means this project is not so relevant. Does this award add any value to my profile if I'm applying for master's in computational engineering/ simulations in the future? Will the employers care about this?
Thank you for your time.
