A premier gathering of emerging scholars, researchers, and visionaries convening at the University of Dhaka to shape the future of multidisciplinary inquiry.
The 2nd International Student Research Conference (ISRC 2026), organized by the Dhaka University Research Society (DURS), is a flagship platform dedicated to celebrating student-led research across disciplines.
From artificial intelligence to public policy, life sciences to literary studies, ISRC 2026 brings together the next generation of scholars to share ideas, challenge perspectives, and forge collaborations that transcend borders.
To empower student researchers with a globally visible platform where their original work is subjected to rigorous double-blind peer review, mentorship, and meaningful academic discourse.
To cultivate a vibrant, cross-disciplinary research community in South Asia — one where emerging scholars from Bangladesh engage as equals with the international academy.
Double-blind peer evaluation completed within 2–3 working days for every submitted abstract.
Connect with a 16–20 member judge panel and peers from across the world, online or on-site.

Multiple submissions are permitted. An author may submit multiple abstracts as a primary author and may also serve as a co-author on additional submissions, provided that each submission represents substantially distinct and original research. If multiple abstracts are accepted, an author may deliver a maximum of two oral presentations, provided that the scheduled presentation times do not conflict. If two presentations overlap, the author must arrange for an eligible co-author to present one of them, subject to the approval of the organizing committee.

Only abstracts meeting all formatting and submission criteria will be considered for review.
Each abstract undergoes a rigorous double-blind peer review, typically completed within 2–3 working days.
Authors are notified of the evaluation results within 2–4 days of submission.
If revisions are requested, authors receive one week to resubmit. In case of rejection, detailed reviewer suggestions are provided for future improvement.
After initial acceptance, authors may be required to provide source code, supplementary materials, or other evidence supporting the reported results. For studies using primary or restricted data, authors may also be required to provide relevant data-use licenses, permissions, or ethical approvals, where applicable.
Initial acceptance is not final acceptance if the advisory committee recommends further verifications. If verification identifies fraudulent data, fabricated/manipulated results, plagiarism, or entirely AI-generated content presented as original work, the submission may be desk rejected or withdrawn, even after initial acceptance.
Authors are responsible for the accuracy, originality, authenticity, and research integrity of their submissions.
