RCIS Doctoral Consortium 2015 - CfP Doctoral Consortium : RCIS 2015 - Seventh IEEE International Conference on Research Challenges in Information Science

The Doctoral Consortium has the following objectives:
? Provide a setting where students can present their work and meet other students
? Provide feedback on students' current research and guidance on future research directions
? Offer each student comments and fresh perspectives on their work from researchers and students outside their own institution
? Promote the development of a supportive community of scholars and a spirit of collaborative research
? Contribute to the conference goals through interaction with other researchers and conference events
The DC is organized in sessions embedded in the main RCIS 2015 conference program.
The goal of RCIS is to bring together scientists, researchers, engineers and practitioners from a wide range of information science fields and provide opportunities for knowledge sharing and dissemination. RCIS 2015 will continue paying attention to traditional topics at the conference; in addition, the special theme of “Information is all around us” will play a special role this year.
