Information Sessions – What is ICUR?
Our introductory What is ICUR? sessions are hosted by the ICUR staff and Student Director team, and cover everything you need to know before submitting. They’re a great opportunity to ask the team anything you’re wondering about – there are no silly questions! – and to get a sense of whether ICUR is the right opportunity for you before you start the programme.
Abstract Writing Workshops
Maybe you’ve presented at conferences before – or maybe you’re not even sure what an abstract is? Whatever your experience, our Abstract Writing Workshops will set you up with all the tools you need to write a research abstract for the ICUR conference.
We’ll discuss the purpose of an interdisciplinary research abstract, and how to consider your audience; we’ll look at structure and content and talk about how we communicate complex ideas in limited word counts; and we’ll work together to identify the characteristics of a strong conference abstract. By the end of the session, you’ll have the outline of an abstract for your own research, and all the resources you need to develop it for submission to ICUR.
Abstract Writing Boot Camps
Have you been working on your abstract – but feel lost, confused, or not very confident? Or have you been thinking about submitting to ICUR, but not found the time?
Our Abstract Writing Boot Camps are an opportunity to set aside some protected time just to focus on your ICUR submission – but also to ask questions directly over Teams and get one-to-one support from the ICUR team in real time.
