Another conference paper

Hee-Haw! My fourth conference paper has been accepted for the 1st Asia-Pacific/5th ANZAM Operations Management Symposium. I can go to Melbourne!!

Attending conferences with refereed article(s) is very important in order to develop a network:
  • for my thesis (to seek potential examiners);
  • for my career (to seek job opportunities as an academia); and
  • for my academic career (to seek opportunities for journal articles to submit).

I know we are not allowed to nominate examiners for the thesis. The principle supervisor is the one who has to find best people who can properly and fairly assess my thesis. I just believe that giving information of who are really suportive and who are not will help when superviros are involved in the process of selecting examiners. Yep, it is a kind of tactics.

4つ目の学会誌への記事掲載への承認許可が下りました。バンザーイ!これでメルボルン行きが決定です。後はお金の工面だけですが、一応は既にあるリサーチ資金から出して、学科長の応援が取り付けられるかどうか、ってところです。話ではあまり期待できそうもありませんがね(苦笑)。

次は、学術雑誌への投稿です。二発目。頑張るぞー!!
