BPM Doctoral Consortium
September 11-12, 2010

Researchers working toward a Ph.D. in the area of Business Process  
Management (BPM) are invited to submit proposals for participation in  
the Doctoral Consortium to be held in conjunction with the 8th  
International Conference on Business Process Management. The BPM 2010  
Doctoral Consortium will provide an opportunity for doctoral students  
to explore and develop their research interests in an  
interdisciplinary workshop, under the guidance of a panel of  
distinguished researchers. This is the first time a Doctoral  
Consortium is held in conjunction with the BPM conference. We will do  
our utmost to provide a friendly and supportive environment and to  
encourage a lively exchange of information and ideas that will help  
shape the BPM field over the next decade.

Eligible candidates will have begun but not completed their  
dissertations. We welcome submissions representing a broad spectrum of  
research areas relevant to BPM and from a range of disciplines ranging  
from computer science to behavioral and organizational science.  
Consortium participants will benefit from the advice of senior  
researchers in the field and interaction with peers at a similar stage  
of their careers.
