HCI Education Sessions All-at-Once
Consortium: Doctoral Consortium
Saturday 18:00 - 21:00.
Sunday 08:30 - 21:00.
Monday 08:30 - 17:00.
The CHI 98 Doctoral Consortium is a closed session that provides an opportunity
for Ph.D. students to explore their research interests in an interdisciplinary
workshop with established researchers in a group setting. The participants
receive feedback on current research and guidance for future research directions.
The consortium also aims toward the development of a supportive community of
scholars while contributing to the conference goals through interaction with
other researchers and participation in conference events. Consortium participants
have been invited based on their dissertation proposals, and reflect the wide
range of disciplines within HCI research.
