IATL's International Conference of Undergraduate Research (ICUR) 2024Link opens in a new window took place on 26th and 27th June, bringing together researchers and audiences from across the world in hybrid, international, interdisciplinary conversations. More than 300 students took part in the event – spanning 17 institutions and 6 continents – presenting their original research in oral panels and poster sessions chaired and supported by a talented co-creation team of student Directors, Session Chairs, and Audiovisual Technicians.

Professor Michael Scott delivered the conference’s keynote address – “Global Travellers, Past and Present” – to packed rooms in Warwick, Venice, Singapore, and beyond; and a programme of complementary sessions offered opportunities to engage with next steps for research including employment and identity, academic publication, and doctoral study.

Our thanks to our ICUR partners, presenters, and supporters for making ICUR 2024 a resounding success.
