Policy
For practical purposes, it should be taken into account that:
- The UMU-UPCT-CMN Doctoral Seminar constitute a forum for scientific communication and debate where doctoral students present the final or preliminary results emanating from their recent original doctoral research. For this reason participation with a presentation is mostly advisable for students in their final years of the doctoral program they are taking.
- The Doctoral Conference of the UMU-UPCT have curricular acknowledgement like any national scientific conference.
- They can be presented individually or co-authored with their doctoral thesis supervisor(s) if they agree so and consider it as convenient (one presentation per doctoral student).
Registration is free for doctoral students from the University of Murcia, the Polytechnic University of Cartagena, the EUniWell Alliance, and also from partner university institutions in Interuniversity Programs with the UMU. The public price for students who do not fit this profile is 50 Euros.
Certificate of Attendance: attendance to more than half the sessions will be necessary to get the activity validated and hence the certificate of attendance. For this purpose, an attendance control will be established in each session.
Certificates of Participation: they can be obtained for oral presentations and will be issued independently.
The LANGUAGE of participation can be Spanish or English, except for the EUniWell sessions, which are only in English.
The Conference is ONSITE, and exceptionally only online video-participations will be allowed by zoom for very justified reasons:
- Be conducting a research stay authorized by the Academic Committee of your Doctoral Program with the Mobility Protocol registered at EIDUM.
- Currently residing in a foreign country.
Online video-participation can only be applied for once your proposal has been accepted by the Scientific Committee, and must be processed through the address <jdoctorado@um.es> attaching a copy of the Mobility Protocol registered at EIDUM and/or copy of registration of residency in a foreign country currently and of your passport.
As the Doctoral Conferences are organized every year, applications for online video-participation will not be accepted for doctoral students who are still enrolled in their first academic year.
The fact of submitting a proposal for communication or poster implies the acceptance of these rules and conditions.

Submission of Proposals
The categories for proposals are two:
- Individual papers are formal presentations on original research by one or more authors, lasting a total of 15 minutes (10 minutes for presentation and 5 minutes for discussion). Please note that the time limit will be strictly adhered to. The length of abstracts for individual papers is max 800 words.
- Poster sessions are for displaying research and they offer the opportunity for individualised informal discussions. Poster is a good format for presenting work-in-progress, fieldwork and results of empirical research when data can be presented visually (e.g. charts, graphs, tables). A block of time will be designated when presenters are available to discuss their posters. The length of abstracts for posters is max 800 words.
Additionally, there will be some satellite activities organised complementarily:
- Plenary Sessions: keynote speaker invited by EIDUM.
- Thematic Panels (for EUniWell Alliance): constitute several independent presentations in English on one of the four Arenas of the Alliance and a subsequent joint discussion, lasting a total of 20 minutes (15 minutes for presentation and 5 minutes for discussion). They are organized by EIDUM as a complementary satellite activity in collaboration with national and/or international institutions. The length of abstracts is also max 800 words. The topic selected must be one of the following:
- EUniWell (Arena 1): Well-being and Health
- EUniWell (Arena 2): Individual & Social Well-being
- EUniWell (Arena 3): Environment, Urbanity and Well-being
-
EUniWell (Arena 4): Teacher Education
Any doctoral student from any of the universities belonging to the EUniWell Alliance, as well as those from the University of Murcia, can submit a proposal for one of the Thematic Panels organised. These participations must be in English and the panels have their own Scientific Committee to evaluate the proposals according to the following criteria:
1. Suitability of the topic to the area of research (Arena).
2. Degree of development of the work.
3. Interest of the results.
The Call for papers and Submission Guidelines for these EUniWell sessions is available here.
