The colloquium is planned for Monday, June 13, 2022.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We welcome applicants from a broad range of research areas relevant to digital government. Ideally, student participants will have completed one or two years of doctoral study or progressed far enough in their research to have a structured proposal idea and perhaps some preliminary findings, but have not reached the stage of defending their dissertations. We expect students at this stage of study will gain the most value from feedback on their work and from the general discussions of doctoral programs and scholarly careers. Although there is no fee for the colloquium itself, students are expected to register for and attend the full conference. Participation is limited to 6-8 students.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The colloquium will encompass three kinds of activities:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Presentations of individual student research followed by in-depth discussions led by faculty mentors.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Informal discussions and networking activities.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If time permits, brief plenary presentations by senior faculty on digital government research themes as well as on planning and managing dissertations and careers.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The colloquium is built around discussion of each student\u2019s work. To accomplish this, each student will read and give a short presentation and commentary on another student\u2019s paper. Each author will then add to the presentation of his or her work, followed by extensive small group discussion. Material provided in applications to the doctoral colloquium will not be published in the proceedings. However, we encourage students to submit finished research to one of the paper tracks or as a poster or demo. (Please see the NOTE below about submitting additional work to the regular conference tracks).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The extended application deadline is April 1, 2022.
