Application procedure<\/h2>\n
PhD students (at any stage) can apply to participate in the workshop. Please note that the workshop is an extension of the PLPR Conference – not a stand-alone event. In order to participate, you will be required to submit an abstract and present at the conference itself. As such, passing the abstract review process is a prerequisite for participation. Our additional requirements<\/em> for workshop participants is that you submit an extended description of your PhD project in order to provide a basis for discussion at the workshop itself.<\/p>\n
In total, you are asked to submit three documents:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Your abstract for the paper you wish to present at the conference.<\/li>\n
- A short description of your PhD 1-3 pages, including: research topic, (sub-)discipline, research question, and abstract (may be the same abstract as above, but has to be submitted separately to the database).<\/li>\n
- An extended description of your research. Not more than 10 pages, including problem setting, research question, hypothesis, theoretical background, research design, research methods, status of your research, problems faced, and (optionally) your CV.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
In order to submit your work, firstly create an account at ConfTool<\/a><\/span> (without direct submission). In a second step, follow this link to submit your abstract, and upload the short description of your PhD<\/a><\/span>\u00a0(due\u00a0October 14, 2016)<\/strong>.
