NOTES
·
For registration you will need
to follow the instructions as outlined at the website of the International
Foundation for Production Research.
Alternatively, you can contact the Chair of the Committee
Doctoral Training and Early Career Researchers Programme: Dr Rob Dekkers (rob.dekkers@glasgow.ac.uk).
·
Note that the organisers of the 27th
International Conference on Production Research will charge a compulsory
subsistence fee for attending the Early Career Researchers Programme. For more information see the website of the
conference: https://www.icpr2023.org/
·
The deadline for applying to the
doctoral workshop is 1st June, 2023 (GMT); however if at the
deadline there are still spaces open you can apply until 7th July
2023.
·
You will be eligible for participating
in this programme if you are undertaking a doctoral study within the scope of
the International Foundation for Production Research. If you fulfil this condition, you may send an
application to the Doctoral Training and Early Career Researchers Committee;
the application should contain three documents:
o A
certified copy of your registration for a doctoral degree (incl. year of first
registration and mode [FT/PT]); might you have a different mode of registration
but still be considered to be a doctoral student, you will need to submit an
official document that clarifies your status.
o One
letter of reference from your supervisor.
o A
letter of motivation.
·
Note that the maximum number of
participants is limited to 30. Might there
be more than eligible 30 candidates at the deadline of 1st June, 2023
(GMT), then the Committee Doctoral Training and Early Career Researchers
Programme will prioritise attendance and notify the applicants as soon as
possible. Might less than 30 eligible
candidates apply before the deadline, then applications will be treated on a
‘first come, first serve’ basis until 7th July 2023.
·
For the session ‘Discussion
of Papers and Research Projects’ (Friday 21sth July - Sunday 23rd
July, 2023, final session of the workshop each day) you have to prepare a
report about your research project.
Alternatively you can use the paper that you are presenting to the
conference. This report should end with
three challenges you face for the completion of your doctoral study. The main body of text should be no longer
than 5000 words (excluding abstract/summary, references, tables and
figures). You should send this report to
the Chair of the Committee
Doctoral Training and Early Career Researchers Programme: Dr Rob Dekkers
(rob.dekkers@glasgow.ac.uk). Deadline: 7th
July 2023.
·
For the session ‘Discussion
of Papers and Research Projects’ (Friday 21sth July - Sunday 23rd
July, 2023, final session of the workshop each day) you have to prepare a
Powerpoint presentation of 10’. This
presentation should cover your research project for the doctoral study but not
necessarily the contents of the paper you are presenting during the
conference. Each presentation will be
discussed by one discussant, followed by a discussion led by a board member of
the International Foundation of Production Research. The discussants will receive the papers in
advance so that they can prepare their commentary.
·
To each report a discussant will be
assigned. In the role of discussant you
need to prepare a Powerpoint presentation of max. 15’ with constructive
comments about the report and the challenges mentioned in the report. Each participant will discuss only once the
research project of another participant.
·
For the session ‘Meet the Board Event’
(Sunday 23rd July, 2023) you have to prepare a poster about your
research project. This presentation
should cover your research project, but not necessarily the contents of the
paper you are presenting during the conference.
The size of the poster is max. A0 (or could
be alternatively, poster size 36”x48”).
·
To receive a certificate, you are
expected to attend all sessions. The
organisers of the 27th International Conference on Production
Research will ensure that the presentation of a paper will not coincide with
attendance to the Early Career Researchers Programme.
