Doctoral Symposium

Doctoral Students from any stage of their Ph.D., and young researchers with a maximum of one year after their PhD dissertations, are invited to propose a paper on their doctoral research featuring technical and non-technical aspects of eSociety, eGovernance, eParticipation, eDemocracy, eGovernment and eHealth and present it in this colloquium.

Overall intention

This colloquium intends to connect young researchers and Ph.D. students with other senior researchers and practitioners on the ICEDEG topics. It lets them receive a friendly welcome to their work and can have feedback, which could be very positive and further enhance their doctoral research career that has just begun.

Participation

The colloquium is an opportunity to exchange experiences and networking in a cross-sectoral and transdisciplinary environment for Ph.D. students and young researchers.

Ph.D. students and young researchers will be encouraged to discuss their Ph.D. experience and vision gained from current works, including challenges they face, their research scope, and future orientation and perspective in a peer-to-peer learning environment with other doctoral students from around the World. Therefore, they are getting feedback and guidance from leading researchers, academics, and professionals participating in the conference.

The colloquium will host 6-14 students and up to 4 leading researchers who will be invited from professionals, scholars, and experts in eGovernment.
