PGR/ECR Conference 2025: Bridging Disciplines

This year's postgraduate and early career researchers conference, Bridging Disciplines, is an opportunity to showcase and celebrate wide-reaching research topics and discoveries that address important and unanswered questions. In an era of changing perspectives and rapidly emerging challenges, the need to amplify previously unheard voices, cross-interdisciplinary boundaries and build resilience becomes increasingly important.

About

The conference provides the opportunity to present either an oral presentation or a poster presentation and is open to PGRs (at any stage of their Doctorate) and ECRs. We welcome submissions from PGRs and ECRs across all faculties within the University of Surrey and hope to receive a diverse range of abstracts that resonate with our conference title, Bridging Disciplines. Prizes will be awarded across a range of categories, including best oral and best poster presentations, and runners-up. Award certificates will be presented to the winning presenters in the closing ceremony.
