Overview

The DC is a concentrated full-day event that will be held on Sunday, March
22rd, 2020, where students present their research interests/plans/results
to a panel of senior researchers in the field and receive specific
constructive feedback, followed by a reception in the evening and
networking opportunities during the following days. Accepted students will
be expected to give in-depth presentations of their research and will
receive constructive comments from mentors. Additionally, accepted students
will create a poster about their work to allow IEEE VR attendees to quickly
familiarize themselves with each other’s work and to be shown to a broader
audience during the conference poster session. Accepted students will have
the option to publish their two-page extended abstract in the conference
proceedings and to be included in the online IEEE VR program. There is also
the possibility that the abstracts may be archived in the IEEExplore
digital library.
Eligibility and Topics

Ideal candidates will be in the early or mid stages of their PhD, and
should have a solid idea of their direction and topic, but should also have
room for improvement. The DC welcomes applicants from a broad range of
disciplines including VR, AR, 3D user interfaces, human-computer
interaction, wearable computing, social informatics, information
technology, cognitive science, and related fields.

and
submitted as a PDF.

   1. Position paper: Paper submissions should be 2 pages in length
   including references. This position paper must clearly motivate, discuss,
   and summarize the proposed Ph.D. research, describe how the research fits
   into and advances research in VR and/or related fields, and report on your
   progress. You may additionally focus on a more specific area of the
   research if desired. In the concluding section, you should identify 2-3
   questions/areas for improvement that you would like to discuss during the
   DC.
   2. A one page Curriculum Vitae.

Submissions received after the deadline will not be considered.
Financing Your Conference Travel

Students are encouraged to seek funding from their institutions for travel
and registration costs. DC participants who also apply as Student
Volunteers will have conference registration fully paid for and planned by
the Student Volunteer team. Historically, the conference has been able to
obtain some funding for students based in the U.S. and as we obtain
specific information on other financial support we will update these pages
and/or notify accepted student researchers.
