Background and Scope
The UMAP 2022 Doctoral Consortium (DC) will take place as part of
the
30th International
Conference on User Modeling, Adaptation, and Personalization.
Doctoral students are invited to apply to present their research
to
experienced scholars who will provide constructive feedback and
advice.
Students should consider participating in the DC if they are at
least
fifteen months away from completing their dissertation at the time
of the
event, but after having settled on a research area or dissertation
topic.
This forum will provide Ph.D. students an opportunity to:
-
Present and discuss their research ideas to experienced scholars
in a
supportive, formative, and yet critical environment;
-
Explore and develop their research interests under the guidance of
distinguished researchers and industry practitioners from the
field who
will provide constructive feedback and advice;
-
Explore career pathways available after completing their Ph.D.
degree,
and finally
-
Network and build collaborations with other members of the
community.
Students are asked to submit a brief proposal outlining their
doctoral
research (see detailed requirements below), which will be
evaluated by the
consortium committee. Good quality applications will be selected
for
presentation at a DC Session as part of the conference. Each
student with
an accepted submission will be assigned a mentor who will provide
feedback
on the student’s work and will discuss the doctoral research with
the
student and the audience at the consortium.
