The Environmental Conference for Doctoral Students on New Theories and New Technology of Environmental Science and Engineering, is jointly held by Tsinghua University, Chinese Society for Environmental Sciences (Environmental Education Committee), Young Scientists’ Association of Chinese Society for Environmental Sciences, Collaborative Innovation Center for Regional Environmental Quality, and State Key Joint Laboratory of Environment Simulation and Pollution Control, sponsored by Xi’an University of Architecture and Technology and Frontiers of Environmental Science & Engineering(Journal, IF=4.155). Adhering to the purpose of “academic exchange towards innovation, wide accumulation towards great ideas,” the conference is themed “New Theories and New Technology of Environmental Science and Engineering”. It has been actively serving as a high-level academic platform for PhD students from environmental sciences and related disciplines.
The annually held conference has so far witnessed 14 successful sessions. With the increasing popularity and influence, the “Environmental Conference for Doctoral Students” has been widely recognized by teachers and doctoral students from environmental field in China, and has gradually become the most influential platform of academic exchange for doctoral students who major in environmental sciences.
Frequently Asked Questions and Answers
Q: Is this conference only for Ph.D. students majoring in environmental studies?
A: At present, the eligibility of submission to the conference is only open to master’s students (China), Ph.D. students (China and overseas), and postdoctoral fellows (China and overseas), whose majors are not limited to environmental studies. As long as their research fields are related to the themes of the conference, these eligible students are welcome to participate and submit their papers. The purpose of the conference is to provide a platform for academic exchange and innovation. Young scholars (master’s students, Ph.D. students and postdoctoral fellows) who do not submit their papers can attend the conference as visitors. Later we will open a registration link for attendance via Wechat Questionnaire. Please keep yourself updated with the latest news from our Wechat public account in real time.
