Get Concrete About Abstracts - An Obermann Get It Done Workshop

The conference abstract is a surprisingly difficult academic genre. How do you explain your project and entice your reader with only a couple hundred words? In this Get It Done workshop, Hyaeweol Choi (Professor, Religious Studies & Gender, Women’s and Sexuality Studies) and E. Cram (Professor, Communication Studies & Gender, Women’s and Sexuality Studies) discuss how to write a compelling conference abstract that will grab the attention of conference selection committees. Both Choi and Cram have served on multiple selection committees; here, they share their expertise on what makes an exceptional abstract.
