For those who have just started their PhD program, we look forward to receiving a research proposal. For those in their late stage of their PhD, you are encouraged to submit a relevant piece for your dissertation (a paper, an overview, or a chapter of your PhD thesis).

The admission to the school will be based on the review of an extended abstract (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BwUnCCShCOT7WEFlYTFPWVV6eGc). For specific information about which research topics are in the scope of the NiTiM Community, please visit https://www.nitim.org/Research/). The deadline for submission of the Extended Abstract is July 25th (midnight CEST). Late submissions will be considered, but risk to be rejected in case of high demand.

The full proposal (or paper), which will form the basis of the discussion and feedback at the Winter School, is due by for review by August 21^st.

The NITIM Schools facilitate the development of doctoral research in the interdisciplinary field of Networks, Information, Technology and Innovation Management, bringing together Ph.D. candidates and faculty members in a focused, in-depth, and constructive discussion of the candidates’ research work.
