- Young Researcher’s Awards
The Organization Committee of ICD, with support from the DEIS Educational Committee and from the DEIS Young Professionals Committee, is setting up a Young Researchers Contest to encourage the participation of students and young researchers in the conference.
Proven full-time engineering and science researchers and PhD students from academia as well as industry are encouraged to participate. In order to promote the involvement of the last generation of researchers into the DEIS community, and to stimulate the emergence of talented early stage researchers, candidates being within five years after their graduation are privileged. Besides the condition on seniority, candidates must be first author of their paper and commit to present it in person to participate to this contest.
Young researchers are kindly requested to “tick” a check case at the abstract/paper submission steps. Candidates whose paper are preselected based on regular reviewing will be invited to present their papers at the conference. An independent jury will establish a classification. Prizes will be awarded to the authors of the best contributions during the closing session.
Three prizes will be distributed, awarding:
- The best Paper
- The best Oral Presentation
- The best Poster Presentation
