Doctoral Consortia

This page lists a wide variety of doctoral consortia that may be of interest to the doctoral student interested in CS education. The doctoral consortium held in conjunction with the annual SIGCSE Technical Symposium was designed for doctoral students whose research area is CS education (although those in other research areas are also welcome). One of the other doctoral consortia is intended for doctoral students in the "learning sciences", while all of the others are more specifically oriented toward doctoral students whose research is in a technical computing area.

The consortia are listed in alphabetical order by the name of the conference. Where found, a general URL is given to a general page that summarizes all instances; otherwise, pointers to specific instances are included in order to give a starting point.

Please send suggestions and additional information to almstrum@cs.utexas.edu.
