Below you will find some guidelines for the Research Presentation.

The Presentation

1. The authors have 20 minutes to present their paper to the professors.
2. After each presentation, two professors will make comments and give guidance about the research.
3. Prepare a short presentation with a maximum of 20 slides. Once the professor had already read the abstract, the main objective is to present clearly the research goals (what), the problem research (why), the method and the theoretical framework (how) and the preliminary results.

Language

1. The Power Point slides must be made exclusively in English.
