DRS Learn X Design 2019
Fifth International Conference
for Design Education Researchers
9-12 July 2019, METU, Ankara
The initiating episode of the DRS Learn X Design 2019 conference will be a one-day “PhD Pit-Stop” event gathering PhD students and supervisors from various design fields. Whether at the beginning, half-way through, or almost approaching the end, we invite you to participate in this event to present your PhD research, receive individual feedback, explore various dimensions and aspects of PhD research, and share insights from your PhD journey with an international design research community.
The PhD Pit-Stop day will start with short presentations by PhD students, followed by interactive discussions with peers and supervisors. The main event of the day will be the PhD Pit-Stop workshop, where supervisors host PhD students in separate discussion zones dedicated to specific stages, issues and challenges of the PhD research. The scope we will cover throughout the day includes the following, and more:
• What is your PhD research area and how might you problematize it?
• How might you strengthen the theoretical foundation of your research?
• What are the alternative methodologies you can adopt for your research?
• Are you dealing with atypical data analysis?
• Do you have early findings you need help to interpret?
• What are the major insights that you would like to share with your peers?
• What are the academic and non-academic career paths you can follow?
There will be mini lectures distributed throughout the day tackling the tricky aspects of carrying out a PhD research such as time management, overcoming procrastination, adopting a PhD mind-set, clarifying the research approach, and intervention strategies for worst case scenarios.
PhD Pit-Stop day participation is free for all registered conference participants whose application for PhD Pit-Stop is accepted. Daily participation fees for those who would like to attend the PhD Pit-Stop day only, can be found here: http://drslxd19.id.metu.edu.tr/call-for-phd-pit-stop/
