*Doctoral Consortium at the Aarhus 2025 conference*

❗️Submission deadline: May 6th 2025

📆 Date of DC: August 19th 2025 at Aarhus University, Denmark

🔗 Submission through PCS at: https://new.precisionconference.com/submissions

ℹ️ More information: https://aarhus2025.org/call-for-contributions/doctoral-consortium

We are accepting submissions to the Aarhus 2025 Doctoral Consortium, a place for mentoring and sharing research relevant to the conference theme among Ph.D. students and established researchers. This event is a forum for in-depth research discussions and sharing of experiences, problems, success stories, and tradeoffs between different research directions in a stimulating, open, and safe environment. We expect that participants will come from a variety of disciplines to create a lively interdisciplinary environment.

As part of submissions to the Doctoral Consortium, we invite you to consider the conference title, “computing (x) crisis”, and how this relates your research to alternatives to current directions in computing, for instance via methodological or theoretical developments, or present new forms of critical or societal engagements and action. With the (X) we invite authors to speculate on potential replacements of the universal X – with, after, in, etc. – and on what it means to combine the two words.

The doctoral consortium will take place on-site at Aarhus University, Denmark.

Who can participate?

You must be enrolled in a conference-relevant discipline as a doctoral candidate at the time of submitting your application and at the time of the conference. You will get the most value from attending if you have a clear direction for your thesis but have not yet finished your research. However, people at other stages may be considered. We are expecting to accept 10-12 candidates.

Preparing and Submitting

Submissions should be single-authored by the PhD student and NOT anonymous. You will submit the following 2 PDFs in the ACM master article template (single column), format through the Precision Conference submission system (PCS).
