The British University in Dubai organises its Seventh Doctoral Research Conference

The British University in Dubai (BUiD) held its 7th Doctoral Research Conference on Saturday, 8 July 2023. Fifty-four research papers were presented by BUiD postgraduate students under three tracks: education, arts and humanities track; management and social sciences track; and engineering, information technology, and physical sciences track. The students presented their research through 13 sessions, which were chaired by BUiD’s students and faculty. This year’s edition marked the participation of students from the University of Manchester.

The 7th BUiD Doctoral Research Conference 2023, which was organized by the Doctoral Research Centre, is a hybrid conference focused on providing students with an international forum through which their work can be shared and published. The conference provided a platform for postgraduate students to share research, receive scholarly feedback, and network professionally.

The conference is one of the major highlights of BUiD’s academic calendar and was an opportunity to shine a spotlight on exemplary student research that fulfilled the requirements of a rigorous peer review process. As a research-based university, BUiD is committed to contributing to the UAE’s vision of a knowledge-based economy by encouraging the research culture among our students and supporting them in disseminating knowledge gained through their research. BUiD is ranked first in research papers per faculty and third in citation per paper in the Arab region, as recognised by the QS Arab Region Universities rankings.
