Submissions are now open for Knowledge Beyond Boundaries, LSE's annual interdisciplinary student research conference, taking place as part of the LSE Festival on Tuesday 17 June 2025! All LSE undergraduates, taught master's students, recent LSE alumni, and current CIVICA students are invited to submit an abstract for this year's conference.
Hosted by LSE100, the School's flagship interdisciplinary course, Knowledge Beyond Boundaries is a unique and friendly opportunity for students to showcase their research and share insights into how social sciences research can transcend the boundaries of traditional disciplines.
Knowledge Beyond Boundaries 2025 draws upon the Festival theme of visions for the future: how will AI, new technologies and innovation shape our societies? How will we confront the global challenges of climate change and inequality?
