The PhD colloquium process
The PhD submissions will be entered into the planned PhD colloquium, where each presenter will have about 30 minutes for presentation, peer review commenting and audience feedback. The colloquium is open to general attendance but will most likely be limited to peer PhD candidates and others coming to the conference immediately in the days after the colloquium.
Paper reviewers and commentators during the colloquium will include:
Cathy Casserly — formerly CEO of Creative Commons
Donna Kidwell – currently the chief security and digital trust officer at Arizona State University
Oddgeir Tveiten – chair of WLS, professor of media studies at UiA and journalism studies at NLA University College
Alexandre Le Voci Sayad – CEO of the Zeitgeist Institute, Sao Paulo, Brazil
Phil Long – Senior Researcher at Georgetown University
Stephen Dobson – Dean of Education and the Arts, Central Queensland University
Program for the colloquium will be posted on this website, as a developing program. PhD candidates are invited to attend the conference as well, thereby earning a certificate recommending the colloquium be equal to a 5 ECTS PhD course once the full paper has been received and accepted.
The call for PhD paper submissions is international. It will require physical presence at the event. It is advisable that submissions are aligned with respective PhD projects and supervisors, reflecting also a reading loist for papers corresponding to dimensions and demands at the presenters home PhD institution.
Colloquium Theme
The general theme of the colloquium reflects the main theme of the conference, which is trust and confidence in a post-truth world. Human and social dimensions of science and technology invites trans-disciplinary research, communicating and working with scientists, engineers, policymakers, business and community officials, or the public to conduct and apply research.The colloquium addresses the use of humanistic and social science methods on the social, historical, philosophical and policy foundations of science and technology as well as their current and future interactions with society.
Basically, the call for PhD paper submissions is quite wide in the hope that we might engender a truly interdisciplinary and trans-disciplinary dialog that carries us into the conference following on May 25th and 26th.
