https://mwais2024.com/submissions/

Completed and research-in-progress submissions will undergo a double-blind
review process by at least two reviewers. To facilitate the blind review,
please do not include any author or affiliation identification on any page
(except the separate cover page), in headings/footers, or in the properties
of the submitted file. Previously published work or work under review
elsewhere is not eligible for submission.

For accepted research, the MWAIS 2024 proceedings will be available through
the Association for Information Systems Electronic Library (AISeL). At
least one author of each accepted paper must register for the conference no
later than April 16, 2024, in order for the paper to be included in the
conference proceedings.

***Full Length Submissions***
You may submit a full length (not to exceed six single-spaced pages with
approximately 2,500 words, including all figures, tables, appendices, and
references), original, and previously unpublished manuscript. The research
may be conceptual, empirical or applied. Accepted papers will be published
in the conference proceedings in their entirety. Select papers included in
the MWAIS 2024 conference will be considered for an expedited review
process and possible inclusion in the Journal of the Midwest Association
for Information Systems (JMWAIS). (http://www.jmwais.org).

In addition, the top three conference papers will be awarded best paper
awards sponsored by the Midwest Association for Information Systems.
Authors of these papers who choose to submit their papers to the JMWAIS
will be awarded a monetary prize and these papers will undergo an expedited
review process by the journal. Up to three cash awards for student papers
will be presented. Papers submitted in the student track must be either
solely authored by students or co-authored where a student is the lead
author.

***Research-in-Progress***
You may submit research-in-progress proposals (abstracts) or a summary of
tentative results of the study to date in a 1,500-2,000 word paper with a
maximum of two figures/tables.

***Panel, Workshop, and Tutorial Submissions***
Individuals interested in conducting a panel, workshop, or tutorial dealing
with technological, managerial, professional, teaching, societal, national
or international issues of information technology management are invited to
submit a 500-1,000 word proposal covering the objectives, issues to be
covered, and the names/addresses of any other panel, workshop, or tutorial
members. The method of presentation is at the submitter’s discretion. A
computer lab will be available if needed. However, the submitter has the
responsibility for providing his/her own participants (such as panel
members). All accepted proposals will appear in the conference proceedings.
Please note that all panel, workshop, and tutorial members must register
for the conference.

***Student Support***
MWAIS will waive the registration fee for students whose papers are
accepted and who will be presenting at the conference (one student per
paper).

***AIS Code of Research Conduct***
Scholarly integrity is a core value in our discipline, and all MWAIS
submissions must comply with AIS policies. The submission of a paper or
abstract means the author certifies it is not copyrighted, has not been
accepted for publication in a journal or proceedings, has not been
presented at another professional meeting, has not been accepted for
presentation at another professional meeting, and is not under review for a
journal, proceedings, or presentation at another professional meeting.
Concurrent submission and/or presentation of the same or similar paper at
another conference is considered a breach of professional ethics.

Scholars submitting papers to this conference thereby attest that they have
read the AIS Code of Research Conduct (https://aisnet
.org/page/AdmBullCResearchCond), and that the work submitted is in
accordance with the Code in all appropriate respects. Editors of MWAIS
conference proceedings who receive allegations of plagiarism or other
scholarly misconduct may inform the AIS President, who may refer the
matter, at his/her discretion, to the AIS Research Conduct Committee.

***Submission or Volunteer Inquiries***
For additional information about submissions or helping out as a reviewer
or session chair, please contact the conference chair via e-mail: Jake
