Dear Colleagues
Announcement: ELA Doctorate Workshop 2017, June 21st – June 24th 2017 in Wroclaw, Poland
The twenty-second ELA Doctorate Workshop will take place in Wroclaw, Poland, from June 21st – June 24th 2017 at the Wroclaw University of Economics.
I would like to invite you to propose one doctoral student from your university, who could contribute to this workshop with an interesting doctoral research project within logistics. All fields of logistics in the broadest sense are of interest.
The nominated student is requested to prepare a three-page paper containing the stage of their doctorate research project (beginning, middle, end) and a brief description of the project (research objectives, methodology, expected results, list of references etc.) and submit the proposal before March 3rd 2017.
The application should also include a short letter of recommendation from the PhD supervisor or Head of the Department (this letter can follow after the proposal if necessary). More information about ELA and the previous doctorate workshops can be found at the homepage of TU Darmstadt (Supply Chain and Network Management http://www.scnm.tu-darmstadt.de (on the right side click on ELA Logistics Association)
The ELA Research Committee will evaluate the submitted papers and invite about 20 doctoral students to participate in the workshop. All the students have to prepare a formal presentation. The chairman and 3 other experienced logistics professors from Europe will participate as advisors and moderators during the workshop.
Accommodation and meals will be free for all the invited doctoral students. Travel costs have to be paid by the participants themselves. The ELA doctorate workshop can be highly recommended. It is an excellent opportunity for doctoral students from all over Europe to meet and establish a valuable network. Students can get 3 ECTS.
Please send the paper as an attached document in Word to the chairman of this year’s workshop:
