The organizing committee of Creativity and Cognition 2024 (C&C 2024) is looking for student volunteers. Student volunteers (SVs) are essential to the success of the conference. We invite enthusiastic and reliable SVs to help us run C&C 2024.
Being an SV provides a unique opportunity to contribute to organising a conference as well as interact closely with contributors, attendees, and your peers. In return for your work, you will get a full conference pass providing you access to all the paper sessions, posters and demos. It is a fantastic opportunity to use this event to build your professional network.
The conference will be taking place in-person in June 2024 in Chicago, Illinois
Round 2: Applications must be submitted by 11th April 2024 30th April 2024.

In return for helping us during the conference, you will also have:- Free registration to the conference including the opportunity to listen to presentations (it covers conference fees, but not travel or accommodation expenses).
- Access to receptions (both conference reception and art opening).
- An opportunity to network with other students and leading researchers.
- Accepted SVs will be offered an opportunity to present a poster of their research during the conference. The poster session will take place alongside the main poster and tool demonstration session. These poster descriptions will not be included in the ACM Digital Library proceedings for the conference.
