Doctoral Consortium

The Doctoral Consortium provides an opportunity for graduate students to present their research interests and plans at a formative stage in their research. The students will receive structured guidance from a panel of distinguished researchers as well as comments from conference participants and fellow students in a collegial setting. The PHM Society Doctoral Consortium will be held as a workshop on Monday, October 14, 2013 at the start of the conference.
