[Diana Limburg]

*Monday 19th March 2018, St Anne’s College, Oxford, UK*

Are you undertaking or supervising an IS-related PhD or Professional
Doctorate?


The UKAIS consortium provides a great opportunity for IS doctoral
researchers to gain input and feedback from senior IS researchers and
peers. Researchers may present doctoral research at any stage – from
proposal to writing up.



The consortium provides:

·       An opportunity for small group, in-depth discussions which focus on
participants’ research issues around both the object and method of the
research;

·       Understanding of work in progress by other researchers active at
PhD level in other universities;

·       Identification of other research related to the participant's
interests.



We invite PhD and professional doctorate students to submit a 500-1,000
word abstract summarising the aims, methods and relevancy of the research
topic by Friday 23 February 2018 to UKAIS2018 at gmail.com, with the subject
heading ‘*UKAIS PhD Consortium*’.

*Preliminary Consortium Programme:*

·      Keynote speaker Prof. Yogesh Dwivedi, Swansea University

·     Groups of 4-5 students, facilitated by leading IS academics from the
