Building upon the success of previous years, AAMAS 2013 will again include a doctoral mentoring consortium, intended for PhD students in advanced stages of their research. This program will provide an opportunity for students to interact closely with established researchers in their fields, to receive feedback on their work and to get advice on managing their careers.

Specifically, the goals of the program are:

• To match each student with an establish researcher in the community (who will act as a mentor). The mentor will interact closely with the student, will provide feedback on research, help form new contacts, etc.
• To allow students an opportunity to present their work to a friendly audience of other students as well as mentors.
• To provide students with insights, contact and opportunities for their future career.
• To foster interactions with mentors and other mentees, one day prior to the main conference.
• To present a dedicated career panel session covering the major career paths including experienced researchers ranging from academics to industry.

In order to participate in the doctoral consortium, students are requested to submit a two page abstract in the AAMAS formatting style describing their research. Abstracts of accepted applications will be published in the official AAMAS proceedings. In addition, students are requested to submit a separate document (maximum two pages) describing the following information:

1. Sex
2. Country of study
3. Area of study (1-3 keywords)
4. Expected time until graduation
5. Preference of poster or oral presentation at the consortium
6. A brief CV

These documents should be submitted electronically via Easychair:
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=aamas2013dc . In this
submission system, please submit your two-page abstract under "Paper"
and the document containing the additional information under "Attachment".

Submissions due: February 11
Acceptance Notification: March 1
Camera ready copies due: March 12
Date of consortium: May 6
