Doctoral students are given the opportunity to share their work-in-progress with invited senior researchers and with the other students in an open and supportive atmosphere. It is also a great opportunity to meet other doctoral students.

The description should include the working title, outline the research problem and theoretical framework, describe suggested methods, and give a description of your progress as well as a future work plan. Specifically include in your description problems you have encountered and would like to discuss at the doctoral forum or questions you would like to raise.
