The PCSC 2025 Student Research Workshop (SRW) invites students at various stages of their research to present their work and receive mentorship and feedback from the research community. This is also an opportunity to present exciting contributions that showcase innovative technologies and detail preliminary experiments that foster discussions to provoke new ideas to emerge.

We welcome papers in two different categories:

• Thesis Proposals. This category is appropriate for students who have already decided on a thesis topic and wish to receive feedback on their proposal and broader ideas for their ongoing work.

• Research Papers. This category accepts work-in-progress, experiments with preliminary results, and late-breaking work. We encourage submissions describing experiments with positive and negative results that can provide relevant insights to the computing community. The first author must be a current student.

Submissions in both categories may be archival or non-archival, based on the decision of the authors. All archival papers will be published in the PCSC 2025 SRW proceedings. Extended versions of archival papers and non-archival papers may be submitted to any venue in the future.

Papers should be up to 4 pages in content with an unlimited number of pages for references and supplementary materials. Submissions need not be anonymized and must follow the PCSC 2025 template used in the main conference.

Please submit your paper via this portal: https://cmt3.research.microsoft.com/PCSCUC2025, and choose "Student Research Workshop" as the type of submission.

• Mentorship. SRW provides an opportunity for students to receive constructive feedback from the computing research community.

• Publication Track Record. Should you opt for an archival publication, your paper can help your research gain visibility while also improving your publication record. This is particularly beneficial when applying for advanced graduate studies here and abroad.

• Exploratory Studies. Submissions with preliminary results can provide insights on why and in which scenarios a particular method succeeds or fails, thus helping both the students and the computing community to work together in advancing the field.

• Deadline of Paper Submission: March 15, 2025 

• Author Notification: March 31, 2025

• Early Bird Registration: April 13, 2025

CSP (Link) offers students the opportunity to receive mentorship and guidance in preparing their research papers, should they opt for archival publication. The goal of the mentorship program is to help students improve the quality of writing for publication.

Each paper will be assigned to a mentor who will review and provide feedback in the form of guidelines and suggestions to improve the overall writing. This mentor will not be the same person who will review the final submission for publication.
