PhD Conference 2017
for doctoral scholars in the RU Education Faculty, CHERTL and ELRC
18 - 20 October 2017
Deadline for Abstracts 15 September
This conference provides a supportive space for postgraduate researchers to share and discuss their work with others from the education research community. All PhD scholars in the Education Faculty, CHERTL and ELRC are invited to participate in this mini-conference, no matter at which stage of the doctoral journey they find themselves. The event gives newer researchers a chance to present their research in a conference setting that is safe and collegial, to listen to what others are doing in the field and to exchange constructive feedback on developing ideas.
With the support of the Education Faculty, CHERTL and ELRC, PhD scholars also get an opportunity to organise, host and chair a conference, which are important skills for those of us who are working or wanting to work in academic and research settings. The conference committee is organising exciting key note speakers, a pre-conference workshop and a cocktail function with live music!
