The Doctoral Symposium is a forum for Ph.D. students to publicly discuss their research goals, methods, and results at an early stage in their research. The Symposium aims to provide useful guidance for completion of the dissertation research and for initiation of a research career by experienced faculty members in a supportive setting. The Symposium and ICSE also provide an opportunity for student participants to interact with established researchers and others in the wider software engineering community.
