The Doctoral Consortium of WI 2023 is aimed at doctoral students in business informatics or thematically related disciplines who are in the second or third year of their doctorate. The two-day workshop will take place on Sunday and Monday, September 17-18, 2023 at the Park Hotel Bad Lippspringe (www.parkhotel-lippspringe.de).
| Time | Deadline |
|---|---|
| 12.06.2023 | Submission of the abstract (synopsis) |
| 24.07.2023 | Invitation of the doctoral candidates |
| 04.09.2023 | Submission of the long version |
Application process
The basis for selection is a three-page exposé (abstract) of the dissertation project. The submitted exposés will be evaluated by the participating professors concerning the significance and justification of the research question, the scientific quality of the elaboration, the potential contribution of the applicant to the colloquium, and the potential benefit of the colloquium for the applicant. The submitters of the top 20 synopses will be invited to the Doctoral Consortium and will then be asked to submit a long version.
Guidelines for the synopsis:
- 3 pages excl. bibliography (no fixed format)
- in English
- submissions may include the name of the author and do not have to be “blind”
The submission of the exposé is also supposed to be done via the ConfTool. Here is the link to the ConfTool:
Why a submission to the Doctoral Consortium is worthwhile
The Doctoral Consortium of WI 2023 provides participating Ph.D. students with the opportunity to present their dissertation project in detail in a workshop format and to further develop it through coaching and high-quality feedback from experienced professors. Furthermore, the exchange with other Ph.D. students is encouraged.
