Application process

The basis for a selection is a three-page exposé (short version) of the dissertation project. The submitted exposés will be reviewed by the participating professors with regard to the significance and motivation of the research question, the scientific and technical quality of the thesis, the potential contribution of the applicant to the Doctoral Consortium and the potential benefit for the applicant. The PhD students with the 20 best exposés will be invited to the Doctoral Consortium and are then asked to submit an extended version.

Guidelines for the exposé:

  • 3 pages plus bibliography (no specific template required)
  • in English
  • the author’s name can be included

Guidelines for the extended version:

  • max. 12 pages plus bibliography (analogous to the research contributions of the WI2022)
  • in English
  • the author’s name can be included

Presentations during the Doctoral Consortium can be held either in German or English.

Please submit your exposés for the Doctoral Consortium via the submission system.

 

Why is participating at the Doctoral Consortium worthwhile?

The Doctoral Consortium of the WI2022 serves to further develop the dissertation projects of the selected participants through coaching and high-quality feedback from experienced professors outside the university. Furthermore, the exchange with other doctoral students is encouraged. The target group are PhD students in Information Systems (or a related discipline) in the second or third year of their PhD.
