IASDR 2009 Call for Doctoral Colloquium Submissions
(http://www.iasdr2009.org/m24.asp)
Submission deadline: May 22, 2009
*****************************************************************************
The Doctoral Colloquium in IASDR 2009 is a special forum in which
Ph.D. students and candidates meet with other doctoral students and
internationally renowned researchers and practitioners in the field of
Design to discuss and get feedback on their work-in-progress of the
thesis. The colloquium committee will select approximately 15
participants who will be required to give short presentations which
will be followed by discussion with the panelists.
We welcome applicants from a broad range of research areas in Design
who have progressed in their research enough to have preliminary
research outcomes with a structured proposal idea, but have not
reached to the stage of defending their dissertation. We hope that
this requirement will help the selected doctoral students who present
their work in the Doctoral Colloquium gaining full advantages of
accommodating valuable inputs in their dissertation progress.
Submissions should be no longer than 4 pages, including a 100-word
long abstract and a description of the work-in-progress with
references. In addition to this 4-page paper, applicants must include
the followings: 1) a paragraph of what you hope to get from attending
the Doctoral Colloquium, 2) your curriculum vitae, and 3) your
advisor's letter confirming your status of the doctoral program
progress.
The paper must clearly state the followings:
- The original key idea of the thesis
- The problem domain addressed for the thesis
- A brief overview of related work
- The research goal and the methodological approach
- Preliminary research outcomes
- The future direction of how to carry out the research
- References
The template for the paper is same with the regular IASDR 2009 paper
template. You will be able to download this template from the IASDR
2009 website.
