The 6th annual Concordia International Research Conference Hanoi (CIRCH) will be held on Wednesday, April 9, 2025. CIRCH is a one-day conference for students from academic institutions all over the world hosted on Concordia International School Hanoi’s campus, designed to promote and further global interest in multidisciplinary research. 

The conference will entertain a series of speakers in addition to an open (forum) discussion regarding presentations. Concordia International School Hanoi strongly believes that it is important to recognize students with a passion for various subjects by providing them with a medium to communicate their findings and receive constructive feedback for their work. This year’s conference will be held in a hybrid format, incorporating both offline presentations for the participants who are available to attend the conference in-person and virtual presentations via an online platform.
