Doctoral Consortium

The Bled 2019 Doctoral Consortium, provides an opportunity for doctoral and research master students to write and present on an aspect of their research. Whether you are just at the beginning or further advanced, there will be an aspect of your research that you can write up, have reviewed by experienced advisors, and present to your peers at the Bled Doctoral Consortium.

Submit your intention to participate to the co-chairs. Doing this well in advance of the consortium date will allow the co-chairs to guide you, together with your supervisor, in the preparation of a suitable contribution to be presented at the consortium, and published in a research volume associated with the Bled eConference.

This day provides a rich experience for both students and supervisors about the process of research – the research journey.

Students are welcome to submit papers about their research (master or PhD level).

The suggested outline of the papers is:

  1. Introduction,
  2. Problem definition,
  3. Methodology,
  4. Preliminary/Expected results,
  5. Future development.

The papers should be up to 10 pages long and submitted via the submission system.

We encourage supervisors to join us in the exciting session and provide their feedback on all presentations.

The final papers after evaluation and suggestions provided at the consortium will be published in the conference under the Doctoral Consortium section.
