[visionlist] ISMAR 2019 Doctoral Consortium

[Christian Richardt]

*Call for Doctoral Consortium – ISMAR 2019*
The International Symposium on Mixed and Augmented Reality

The ISMAR 2019 Doctoral Consortium (DC) provides an opportunity for
doctoral students to present and receive feedback about their research in
an interdisciplinary workshop, under the guidance of a panel of mentors
selected from experienced people in the field. We invite students who feel
they would benefit from this kind of feedback on their research to use this
unique opportunity to share their work with students in a similar situation
as well as senior researchers in the field.

The consortium will comprise presentations by students, whose applications
have been selected by the Doctoral Consortium chairs and potentially other
reviewers. The strongest candidates will be those who have a clear topic
and research approach, and have made some progress, but who are not so far
along in their research that they can no longer make changes.

*Discount Information:*
Each selected student will receive a *travel grant of 400 USD* (but still
need to register for the conference).

*Important Dates*
Submission Deadline: July 31th, 2019 (23:59 AoE)
Notification: August 20th, 2019
Camera-ready version: August 27th, 2019
Consortium meeting: October 18th, 2019

*Objectives*
The objectives of the Doctoral Consortium are to:

   - Serve as a supportive setting to provide/receive feedback on students’
   current doctoral and master’s research as well as guidance on future
   research directions.
   - Offer each student comments and fresh perspectives on their work from
   researchers and students outside of their own institution.
   - Promote the development of a supportive community of scholars with
   affinity to IEEE ISMAR, and a spirit of collaborative research.
   - Contribute to the conference goals through interaction with other
   researchers and conference events.

*Submission Instructions*
Submissions should be 4 pages in length, including references. The content
should include an overview of your planned thesis work. You may
additionally also focus on a more specific area of the research if desired.
Ideal candidates will be in the early or mid-stages of their PhD, and
should have a solid idea of their direction and topic, but should also have
room for improvement.

Submissions will have the option of being archived in the IEEE Xplore
digital library (either in the main or adjunct conference proceedings). The
selection is based both on the review of the submission and the feedback on
the presentation.

DC submissions must follow the “Conference Proceedings” format for which
templates (LaTeX, Word) are available from the submission guidelines
<http://www.ismar19.org/news/163.html>, or directly from IEEE VGTC:
