*** ACM IUI 2020: Student Consortium Call for Papers***
Cagliari, Italy
March 17-20, 2020
https://iui.acm.org/2020/call_for_demo_poster.html
Important Dates:
- Submission Due: Jan 3, 2020
——————————————————————————————
Overview
The IUI 2020 Student Consortium is intended to provide an
opportunity for Doctoral and advanced Masters students to present
and receive feedback about their research in an interdisciplinary
workshop, under the guidance of a panel of mentors selected from
senior researchers in the field. We invite students who feel they
would benefit from this kind of feedback on their research to use
this unique opportunity to share their work with students in a
similar situation. The consortium will be organized with 8 to 12
student presentations selected by the Student Consortium chairs
and potentially other reviewers. The strongest candidates will be
those who have a clear topic and research approach, and have made
some progress, but who are not so far along in their research so
that they can still update their research topics or methods. The
final version of accepted SC submissions will be included in the
main conference proceedings published in the ACM DL.
Complimentary/reduced conference registration will be available
for students. Student Consortium participants will also be given
high priority when applying for the student travel awards.
Moreover, we are working to provide partial reimbursement of
travel/accommodation expenses specifically for the participants of
the Student Consortium.
Objectives
The objectives of the student consortium are to:
1. Serve as a supportive setting to provide/receive feedback on
students' current doctoral and masters' research and guidance on
future research directions
2. Offer each student comments and fresh perspectives on their
work from researchers and students outside of 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
