➡️ Scholarships: there is a limited number of scholarships available for PhD students wishing to attend the Doctoral Symposium (DS). PhD students wishing to apply should not register immediately. Instead, an email (application letter) should be sent to the DS chairs including a support letter by the supervisors. ⬅️

A Doctoral Symposium will be held on the 7th October in conjunction with the 23rd International Symposium on Formal Methods and 3rd World Congress on Formal Methods which will take place in Porto, Portugal, from 7 to 11 October 2019.

Doctoral Symposium Chairs

Goals and Scope

This symposium aims to provide a helpful environment in which selected PhD students can present and discuss their ongoing work, meet other students working on similar topics, and receive helpful advice and feedback from a panel of researchers and academics.

If you are a PhD student researching any topic that falls within the area of formal methods, you are warmly invited to submit a Research Abstract for consideration to be selected as a participant.

There will be a best presentation award. Scholarships for attendance will also be available.

  • Contain a very brief literature survey indicating the most important references related to:
    1. the problem being addressed and/or
    2. existing solutions as appropriate.
  • Indicate your progress to date and the current stage of research.

The Research Abstract should be written by yourself as sole author, but should include references to any papers you have already published, including joint publications with your supervisor.

Important Dates

  • Submission deadline: June 10, 2019 June 18, 2019
  • Notification: July 5th, 2019
