Here is a way to travel, present research, have fun and improve your resume at no cost to you.

This is a professional conference which accepts student papers. It is unusual in that it focuses on the social and behavioral sciences, business and education.

Please let me know if you are working on a research project and I will help you with the proposal. We will pay all expenses of those presentations approved by me and accepted by the conference.
