2023: International Conference of Sport and Exercise Science Students (ICSESS)

Abstract

The International Conference of Sport and Exercise Science Students (ICSESS) 2023 was the first one organised by the Faculty of Sports and Exercise Science (FSES), Universiti Malaya. The conference served as an international scientific platform especially for the undergraduate students to showcase their research work. The objective of this conference was to promote research culture among students in Sports & Exercise Science, Sports Management and Physical Education areas through sharing knowledge and experience. In addition, the conference also offered opportunity for students to expand their networking internationally. In this Conference, we received more than 60 papers, oral and poster, from our invited speakers and participants. Considering the total number of participants were about 150, the ratio of presentation-participant was quite impressive. These participants came from neighbouring countries: Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore, and Indonesia. We introduced a competition for both oral and poster i.e., Junior Researcher Award and Best Poster Award. This spurred their interest and added value to the conference. We concluded that the ICSESS 2023 had brought together university students and nurtured the young and budding researchers. We published here the abstracts from both oral and poster categories that were filtered and met the Journal’s standard requirement. We apologized for several other abstracts presented in this conference not able to be published as they were not complete, and we could not get reply and revision within a specified time.
