Frequently asked questions

Can I submit a presentation and a poster?
Yes, you are welcome to submit to both streams.

Does my supervisor have to approve my poster or talk?
Yes, your principal supervisor should be aware of and approve what you are presenting.

Can I use my own template rather than the FedUni one for my PowerPoint Presentation?
No. You must use the FedUni template (downloads are on the conference website under 'Oral Presentation'). The front slide (title slide) please ensure you do not remove the Federation University Australia logo, the other slide/s can be altered to suit your presentation but try to keep the Federation University Australia logo at the bottom of the slide/s.

How long is my Oral Presentation talk?
The total time allocated for a presentation is 15 minutes.  Your talk must be a maximum of 10 minutes in length, which will leave time for audience participation of 5 minutes. The session chair will start a 10 minute timer when you commence your talk.  Once the sound of the alarm goes the session chair will ask you to stop presenting (going overtime may affect your overall score and feedback).

I am having trouble signing into my Federation University account/accessing the Submission form. What do I do?
If you are having issues accessing the submission form, it is most likely due to the way you have signed into the browser. ITS has some helpful articles regarding this, which you can read here. If you have confirmed that you are signed into your Federation University account and you still cannot access the form, please contact us at feduni.researchconference@federation.edu.au.
