Call for papers
The quality of PhD study is one of the core areas where the best universities invest because these investments directly influence the future of the whole research world. From this point of view, it is important for each PhD student to follow the current publication trends, respect research ethics, and be ready to compete as well as collaborate with others in relevant research field.
The 2025 PhD Pre-conference Seminar will consist of three sessions, namely:
- Session 1: Structure and contents of good research papers.
- Session 2: Presentations and discussions linked to the submitted papers/drafts/research plans of individual participants.
- Session 3: Presentation techniques and the training of individual participants' presentation skills
The seminar will be organised in a way which allow the participants to understand that their involvement in research is about more than just collecting data, analysing, and writing everything important down. On contrary, they will understand that the choices made before writing itself could essentially determine the success of the final research output (e.g., article). Moreover, they will train their presentation skills because these skills will help them to sell their results within the academic competition in the future.
