The Asian Conference on Education (ACE), one of the largest international interdisciplinary academic conferences in Asia, includes The Asian Undergraduate Research Symposium (AURS). AURS provides undergraduates with an exciting opportunity to present and learn from researchers and professionals from around the globe. Following the first three AURS events in 2015, 2016 and 2017, the AURS organisers are again reaching out to undergraduate scholars from across all fields and disciplines to participate in the 2018 symposium. Here, students will share their academic research experiences and the knowledge they have acquired as an undergraduate working with professors or academic mentors.
AURS2018, which takes place in a supportive and collegial environment in the beautiful city of Kobe, provides you with a motivating and thought-provoking opportunity to present your research, network with other undergraduates and academics from around the world, and find out how your participation in the symposium can aid you in your future directions. All student presenters will also have the chance to attend other academic sessions at ACE as an observer.
The final abstract submission deadline for AURS2018 is August 07, 2018. Registration is now open.
If you have any questions regarding AURS, please email [email protected].
