Give a presentation at a Convention / National Congress

Presentation of a communication in oral or poster format at a National Congress/Day (Spanish territory). It can be in the annual Doctoral Conferences organized by EIDUCAM, provided that the student attends them. Doctoral students may participate in this activity from the moment they are admitted to the program. It is estimated that the preparation of the communication and the attendance to the conference will take approximately 5 days of work for the student. Each doctoral student, guided by his/her director/s, will make a study of the offer of National Congresses/Conferences of interest for his/her area of knowledge. Before deciding to participate in an event, he/she must have the approval of his/her director(s).

Attendance at UCAM conferences is mandatory for incoming students, during which they must present their research plan in poster format. Therefore, this mandatory national congress activity can be carried out during the first year.

Participation in this type of event will be approved when the PhD student presents the certificate of attendance and participation in the form of an oral or poster presentation, issued for this purpose by the Organising Committee of the National Convention. The certificate must be uploaded to the activity enabled on LAUREA ACADEMIC and will subsequently be validated by the student's tutor. Procedure: After the participation at the National Convcention, the PhD student must upload the certificate of the given presentation, issued for this purpose by the Organising Committee of the event, to the corresponding activity on LAUREA ACADEMIC. This certificate will be the proof of completion of the activity (not the poster or oral presentation). The learner's tutor will visualise and evaluate the assignment.

An ORAL OR POSTER PRESENTATION on a topic related to the development of the student's thesis, which the student completed prior to admission to the PhD programme, may be presented at a national convention/congress. To do so, the documentation described above must be uploaded on LAUREA ACADEMIC and the tutor will evaluate and validate said documentation if necessary.
