Q My co-author and I have had our paper accepted to the conference. I am already a member of the society. My co-author isn’t, though due to a scheduling conflict they will be the one to present on the day. Do both of us need to be members of the society or is my membership valid to enable my co-author to present on my behalf?
A All presenting authors must be members of the Society so yes, your co-author will need to join.

Sessions are either 90 or 120 minutes in length. 90-minute sessions will typically include up to four papers, 120-minute sessions typically up to five. Papers should be presented within a maximum of 15 to 18 minutes so that there is sufficient time available for discussion. Session Chairs are asked to enforce this limit with gusto!
The Scottish Economic Society will award a prize of £1000 for the best paper presented at its annual conference by an economist currently registered for a PhD or who has successfully completed a PhD within the last five years. Cairncross Prize applicants should submit their paper as above and indicate that they wish to be considered for the prize. Consideration for the prize presupposes conference attendance and Society membership.
