Dear all,
UTSG's 48th Annual Conference, hosted by the University of the West of England, Bristol and the University of Bristol, is to be held on Wednesday 6th - Friday 8th January 2016 inclusive. Papers are invited on both completed work and projects in their early stages in any field of transport, travel and mobility. Inclusion of papers in the conference does not constitute publication, and papers submitted to a journal for publication may also be submitted to the conference unless they appear in a journal before the conference.
Staff and students of UTSG member institutions are invited to submit 200-300 word abstracts for consideration using the online submission form at: http://www.utsg.net/confmgt/openconf.php
Papers are also welcomed from honorary staff of a member institution (or from staff and students who have now left a member institution) where the paper relates to work carried out under the aegis of the institution (or while a member of staff or student was at the institution).
Eligible authors are also invited to enter the competition for the Smeed Prize, which will be awarded for the best student paper. The first prize is £500 and the runner-up prize is £250. The winning paper may also be published in an appropriate journal. Prospective entrants should consult the Smeed Prize regulations, available from: http://www.utsg.net/web/index.php?page=annual-conference
Please note especially that abstracts for papers to be entered into the Smeed Prize competition need to be between 800-1000 words and accompanied by a confirmation e-mail from the candidate's supervisor, which must be sent by 31st August 2015 to Dr Juliet Jain: [log in to unmask]<mailto:Juliet.Jain%40uwe.ac.uk?Subject=Contact+via+UWE+Staff+Profile>
