Ph.D. Students Forum :

The Ph.D. Students Forum provides an opportunity for research students to showcase their original works or the works currently under progress’. Any Ph.D. student including those who have completed Ph.D. in 2021 can participate in the forum. As a separate track of Indicon 2021, the Ph.D. Forum has four goals:

  1. To provide constructive feedback and guidance to doctoral students who are performing their dissertation research
  2. To help students aligning their research interests with the hottest topics of the scientific community;
  3. To develop a supportive community of researchers and potential collaborators;
  4. To help doctoral students interact with established researchers and practitioners in their field.
The accepted works will be allowed to showcase during the conference through poster presentations or pre-recorded videos. Also, there will be a live interaction session for all the accepted works. The works currently submitted in Indicon 2021 can also be submitted in this forum by strictly following the submission guidelines of this forum. In case the submitted paper is previously published then the publication details must be mentioned in the paper. The participating Ph.D. student must be a part of the work.
