CALL FOR DOCTORAL CONSORTIUM PAPERS
The BIR 2017 Doctoral Consortium provides doctoral students an opportunity to present and discuss their research on topics of BIR 2017 under the guidance of a panel of experienced researchers. We invite doctoral students to share their work with fellow students and senior researchers in the field by submitting an article of 8 pages by June 4, 2017.
The Doctoral Consortium has the following objectives:
●            Provide an open forum where students can present their work and meet other students.
●            Provide feedback on current research and guidance on future research directions.
●            Promote a spirit of collaborative research.
 
 
STRUCTURE OF THE DOCTORAL CONSORTIUM SUBMISSION
