Dear AKCSE Members, 

Canada‐Korea Conference on Science and Technology (CKC) is an international conference jointly organized by the Association of Korean Canadian Scientist and Engineers (AKCSE) and the Korean Federation of Science and Technology Societies (KOFST) annually. Fostering collaborations between Canada and Korea has been the key focus of conference. CKC has brought together scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs and young students from Canada and Korea, and provided an important platform to build network, share knowledge and develop collaborative research. CKC features Technical sessions, Joint Research Canada‐Korea R&D collaboration programs, Research Showcase as well as Young Generation Program.

This year, CKC2021 will be held in hybrid mode (in-person and online).

We expect most Canadian participants can attend this conference in-person at Halifax, NS from September 1-4, 2021 and most Korean participants will attend online.

For selected high caliber technical session or research showcase abstracts, the conference organizer may provide partial travel support for the conference.

Therefore, participants from Canada are highly encouraged to plan ahead and attend this conference in-person.

All abstracts must be technical in nature. One-page abstract will be peer-reviewed. Selected abstracts will be presented in technical sessions (oral presentation) or a poster session during the conference.

In addition, the conference proceeding will be published officially by AKCSE and the authors will have an option to publish either one-page abstract or full conference paper.

Early‐registration & Abstract Deadline: May 31st, 2021

At least one of the authors must register for the conference and submit an abstract by this deadline and present the abstract at the conference.

A participant can submit a maximum of two abstracts. 

Please follow the instructions for the preparation of abstracts (technical session or research showcase) in the attached file.
