Call for presentations

One of the main goals of this event is to encourage you as a researcher to step out of your office and present your research to colleagues at the Faculty of Law and Criminology. You can do this in three different ways:

• A poster presentation
  Produce an attractive and clear academic poster that attract people’s attention and serves as a conversation starter.
• A ‘classic’ 15-minute presentation (individual or in panel)
  Although it does take time to make a good presentation, it is well worth the investment: a good oral presentation is probably the best way to stand out at an academic conference.
• A two-minute pitch
  Get the stage for two minutes. Try to condense your research into something easily digestible that sparks conversation.

Find out more about the requirements for each of the formats.
