Bishop’s University is holding the 1st Annual Quebec Universities English Undergraduate Conference (QUEUC) on March 26 & 27, 2010. This conference is full of exciting ways to get involved with other students in the same field of study. Scheduled events include a welcome reception, a play, wine and cheese, breakfast and lunch, ten panels (including up to 40 different panelists), as well as a keynote speaker.
This is a wonderful opportunity for the Quebec undergraduate community to present, discuss and debate their academic research in a collaborative conference setting. Participants will gain valuable experience for future graduate studies and post-graduate careers, as well as adding LEAP credits to their transcripts.
