The ICEGOV Doctoral Colloquium is a full-day event that takes place on the last day of the conference. Chaired by renowned Professors in the area of Digital Governance, the aim of the Doctoral Colloquium is to provide PhD students with an opportunity to present, discuss, and receive feedback from academic experts regarding their submitted paper and, more broadly, their ongoing doctoral work. The session is also useful for building the students' peer-to-peer and professional networks. Naturally, PhD students are also welcome to attend the conference in full.
In order to attend the Doctoral Colloquium, the student must have a paper accepted for this session on any topic related to the conference theme or tracks. The paper should explain the research problem, the motivation behind it, the research questions, as well as the research methodology. It should also include the scientific and technical challenges, and the respective research results obtained so far, as well as future developments. Submissions for the Doctoral Colloquium will have the form of an ongoing research paper (between 5-8 pages). Although supervisors can co-author the paper, the doctoral student must be the first author. Papers for the Doctoral Colloquium are reviewed by the respective Chairs, leading Professors in the area with vast experience in accompanying doctoral students.
The presentation is limited to 20 minutes, after which the students will receive detailed feedback from the Chairs. A short Q&A will follow from the other students present in the session.
