IGLC 2018 - Summer School: Developing research strategy for lean construction studies
21st and 22nd July, 2018
The 2018 IGLC International Postgraduate Summer School will provide an opportunity for post-graduate students to present their work and receive feedback from a panel of around eight senior Lean Construction academics. The Summer School is an opportunity for post-graduate and graduate students to present their work and receive feedback from a panel of senior Lean Construction academics. This two-day event supports in-depth discussion of current research in the field of lean construction, and offers students an opportunity to: (1) collect feedback on their research and presentation styles, (2) engage in discussion with leaders in the lean construction community, and (3) meet their peer students researching similar topics.
The school is organized to foster discussion – students have 20 minutes to present, followed by 15 minutes of discussion. Students report this is one of the most valuable parts of the conference, as it offers them an opportunity to improve their research proposals. In this edition of the IGLC Summer School, emphasis will be given to Research Strategy for Lean Construction Studies aiming to discuss methodological approach to produce innovative research as well as to make theoretical contributions.
