FAQ

Can I pay a reduced registration fee?

Doctoral students can attend the conference at a reduced rate. Information about registration can be found on http://www.euramonline.org/registration-2019/fees-registration-2019.html.

Please note, when registering, you need to upload proof that you are a current Ph.D. student before completing your payment. Appropriate documentation should be a signed and dated in a letter from your supervisor using the letterhead of the institution or a dated student card (documents should be submitted in English. Student cards with characters other than Roman will be discarded, i.e. Chinese, Cyrillic, etc. characters). The conference team will approve your status within five working days. You will then be invited to complete your online payment. If you do not upload this documentation before completing your payment, you will be charged the full fee.

Can I attend the Doctoral Colloquium?

To attend the Doctoral Colloquium students must submit their paper to the Doctoral Colloquium before 22 January 2019 and receive a letter of acceptance (14 March 2019). The Call for Applications was posted in fall 2018. Keep monitoring EURAM’s website, next call for Applications at EURAM 2020 will be published in fall 2019.

The link to the IT platform for submissions is https://www.xcdsystem.com/euram/abstract/index.cfm?ID=cd8gR1a

If you have NOT submitted a paper to the Doctoral Colloquium event and have NOT received an acceptance letter, you may NOT attend the Doctoral Colloquium – even if your paper has been accepted for the 2019 EURAM Conference.

What are the submission criteria?

You will find all information about the submission criteria in the Call for Papers or on the dedicate page http://www.euramonline.org/submissions-guidelines-2019/author-s-guidelines.html. The online submission opened on 1 December 2018.

May I submit more than one paper?

ONE PRESENTING AUTHOR PER PAPER SUBMISSION

Each individual is limited to one personal appearance on the programme as a presenting author. This policy precludes acceptance of papers for more than one presentation. In other words, an author can submit and present only one paper. However, a presenter can always be a non-presenting co-author on additional papers.

Conference delegates who did not submit a paper or are not scheduled for a presentation are welcome to join the conference to develop their network and to attend any of the scientific activities of the EURAM 2019 programme. To do so, they will need to register as a paying delegate in the conference here http://www.euramonline.org/registration-2019/fees-registration-2019.html.

When will I know if my paper has been accepted?

EURAM will contact you on 20 March 2019. If you have not heard from us by 2 April, please contact us

Will I receive the reviewers’ comments on my paper?

You will receive the reviewers’ comments in your notification email.

Will I receive a certificate confirming that I have reviewed a paper at EURAM?

EURAM automatically provides certificates for reviewing a paper in the course of the month of April. Moreover, the reviewers are all listed in the e-proceedings with their name, first name and affiliation.

There is an award for the Best Reviewer of the conference with prize money of 500 Euro.
