The DC offers Ph.D. students in IS and related fields the opportunity<br>
to engage with other doctoral students and to receive feedback from<br>
experienced reviewers and scholars. Design Science Research in IT is a<br>
challenging and rapidly developing area of research where the exchange<br>
of ideas and discussion of concepts, directly with other researchers,<br>
is an effective way of gaining new insights and identifying<br>
opportunities for possible collaborations. The doctoral consortium<br>
will enable second year doctoral students to present and reflect on<br>
their work and receive feedback from a panel of experts.<br>

the contribution or expected contribution<br>
intended future work<br>
specific issues related to doctoral research that you would like to<br>
