**Calling all PhD students! iDocQ will take place this year in
Edinburgh on
Thursday 3rd May 2018**
iDocQ is a colloquium for doctoral students in Information Science and related subjects. Established in 2011, iDocQ has taken place every year since at venues in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Aberdeen. It attracts PhD
students from across the UK, and has also welcomed students from other countries too on occasion (e.g. from Australia, Canada, Norway).
iDocQ8 will include opportunities for PhD students to:
·
Share details of their PhD work in progress
·
Participate in workshop discussions on rising to the challenges of doctoral work – both in terms of the research itself, and as related to life as a PhD student in general
·
Hear from an internationally-renowned keynote speaker on current research in the field
·
Pose anonymous questions for members of the expert PhD Supervisor Panel to answer
·
Network with PhD student peers and academic staff from other Universities across the UK and beyond
