======================================================== * Deadline extended to 25 June 2023 * ======================================================== ACM ICMI 2023 CALL FOR DOCTORAL CONSORTIUM CONTRIBUTIONS 9-13 October 2023, Paris - France https://icmi.acm.org/2023/doctoral-consortium/ ========================================================
The goal of the ICMI Doctoral Consortium (DC) is to provide PhD students with an opportunity to present their work to a group of mentors and peers from a diverse set of academic and industrial institutions, to receive feedback on their doctoral research plan and progress, and to build a cohort of young researchers interested in designing and developing multimodal interfaces and interaction. We invite students from all PhD granting institutions who are in the process of forming or carrying out a plan for their PhD research in the area of designing and developing multimodal interfaces. Who should apply? ----------------- While we encourage applications from students at any stage of doctoral training, the doctoral consortium will benefit most the students who are in the process of forming or developing their doctoral research. These students will have passed their qualifiers or have completed the majority of their coursework, will be planning or developing their dissertation research, and will not be very close to completing their dissertation research. Students from any PhD granting institution whose research falls within designing and developing multimodal interfaces and interaction are encouraged to apply. Why should you attend? ---------------------- The DC provides an opportunity to build a social network that includes the cohort of DC students, senior students, recent graduates, and senior mentors. Not only is this an opportunity to get feedback on research directions, it is also an opportunity to learn more about the process and to understand what comes next. We aim to connect you with a mentor who will give specific feedback on your research. We specifically aim to create an informal setting where students feel supported in their professional development. Important Dates --------------- Submission deadline June 25, 2023 *** EXTENDED *** Notifications July 24, 2023 Camera-ready August 6, 2023 Submission Guidelines --------------------- Graduate students pursuing a PhD degree in a field related to ICMI are eligible to apply for the Doctoral Consortium (DC) and should submit the following materials: 1.
