Dear PhD students,

*Submit a Doctoral Consortium Paper to CAISE'2017 !*

If your paper is accepted and presented in CAISE'2017 DC, you will be 
eligible for application to the "CAiSE PhD Award" in the future CAISE 
conferences after your viva voce.

CAISE'2017 DC paper submission deadline is March 20, 2017.



The CAiSE'2017 Doctoral Consortium will be the 24th Doctoral Consortium 
of a series held in conjunction with the CAiSE conference series. It is 
intended to bring together PhD students working on foundations, 
techniques, tools and applications of Information Systems Engineering 
and provide them with an opportunity to present and discuss their 
research to an audience of peers and senior faculty in a supportive 
environment, as well as to participate in a number of plenary sessions 
with Information Systems academics.


The goals of the CAISE'2017 Doctoral Consortium are:

- To provide fruitful feedback and advice to the selected PhD students 
on their research project
- To provide the opportunity to meet experts from different backgrounds 
working on topics related to the Information Systems Engineering field
- To interact with other PhD students and stimulate an exchange of ideas 
and suggestions among participants
- To provide the opportunity to discuss concerns about research, 
supervision, the job market, and other career-related issues

To be eligible for the Doctoral Consortium, the candidate must be a 
current doctoral student within a recognized university. Ideally, the 
candidate should have at least 6-12 months of work remaining before 
expected completion (and at least 12 months of work already performed).

professors in the field of Information Systems Engineering who will 
actively participate as mentors to each doctoral student presenting a 
paper in the Doctoral Consortium.

(http://ceur-ws.org/).
- Roel Wieringa will provide an introduction to design science 
methodology for all PhD students participating to the Doctoral Consortium.
- Authors of accepted Doctoral Consortium papers will benefit from a 
reduced registration fee, which will also enable them to attend the main 
CAiSE conference, and all associated social events.
*- Also, this submission might allow you (in case of acceptance) to 
candidate for a future CAiSE PhD Award after your viva.*

 From CAiSE 2015, a "CAiSE PhD Award" has been initiated. Each year, an 
award will be offered to a PhD defended in the last two years. With the 
award being co-sponsored by the CAiSE Steering Committee and Springer, 
it will consist of a free full registration (5 days) to the next two 
CAiSE conferences and will be accompanied by a book voucher for a free 
selection worth EUR 500,- from Springer's printed book program. In 
addition, the selected thesis will be recommended for publication as a 
monograph in the LNBIP series published by Springer. The condition to 
apply for the "CAiSE PhD Award" is *having participated as an author to 
a previous CAiSE Doctoral Consortium* and having defended the PhD thesis 
in the last two years.
