ICSE 2011 Doctoral Symposium
Monday, May 23, 2011
8:30AM - 5:00PM
Location: Hibiscus 1&2
Goals and Objectives
The goals of the Doctoral Symposium are to provide a supportive yet questioning setting in which Ph.D. students can present their work; to provide an opportunity for students to attend ICSE; and to support the ICSE mission as a world-leading venue for software engineering research. Students will be able to discuss their goals, methods, and results at an early stage in their research. The Symposium aims to provide students with useful guidance and feedback on various aspects of their research from established researchers and the other student attendees. It also helps participants to establish a research and social network of their peers from around the world.
The Symposium is a closed forum, open only to the committee and invited students.
