The Student Conference in Interaction Technology and Design is the annual grand finale of the course Current Topic in Interaction Technology and Design at the Department of Applied Physics and Electronics, Umeå University. The idea and objective of the course are to give the students a forum, where they can actively participate in scientific research and development through their own ideas and interests. The course introduces students to independently finding and researching a topic of interest for them, writing a scientific article, peer-reviewing, and presenting their work at a conference. The course is conducted in English both in writing and orally, and it is a foreign language for most of the students. The conference format is chosen to provide a realistic environment for the presentation of the results. The work of each student has been reviewed both by other participants on the course and members of the department. If the reviews are favorable, the paper is accepted as a full paper at the conference and included in the proceedings.
