POSTGRADUATE STUDENT CONSORTIUM

The Postgraduate Student Consortium (1000-4000 words) provides postgraduate students with an opportunity to discuss their study with other students & experienced researchers. Submissions (an extended abstract or full paper plus one-page curriculum vitae) are invited from current postgraduate students who would benefit from detailed workshop discussions of their research by a panel of established researchers.

The Postgraduate Student Consortium will be held within special time slots during the conference. Students should give a presentation providing an overview of their work & results to date. Student participants will have the chance to discuss their research in an informal session with peers & academics.

Aims

  1. Provide a supportive setting for feedback on students' current research and guidance on future research directions.
  2. Offer each student comments and fresh perspectives on their work from faculty and students outside their own institution.
  3. Promote the development of a supportive community of scholars and a spirit of collaborative research.
  4. Contribute to the conference goals through interaction with other researchers and conference events.
  5. To network with colleagues of similar background or interests.
