The AAAI Doctoral Consortium (DC) brings together established researchers and mid-career Ph.D. students for a two-day workshop where students and faculty interact in a range of settings to provide both formal and informal career and research mentoring. As a means of encouraging young and upcoming researchers in Artificial Intelligence, the AAAI Doctoral Consortium has been proven to be a relatively inexpensive and extremely effective model. Many of the current reviewers, mentors, organizers, and panelists were once student participants in prior AAAI DCs.The Intellectual Merit of the AAAI Doctoral Consortium lies in the unique opportunity for junior researchers to gain high quality feedback on academic and social issues relevant to their career, from senior researchers within their community. As part of the DC program, mentors and students interact in meetings, panels, working lunches, and during oral presentations and discussions. For many students, this is the only opportunity to receive focused input from researchers other than members of their dissertation committee at their home institution. Students not only gain the experience of giving a talk on their thesis research and receiving specific feedback on their work, they also are given the opportunity to discuss more personal issues, such as balancing work and family when pursuing a research career after completion of their Ph.D. studies.

AAAI博士联盟（DC）汇集了成熟的研究人员和职业生涯中期的博士。学生参加为期两天的研讨会，学生和教师在一系列环境中互动，提供正式和非正式的职业和研究指导。作为鼓励年轻和即将到来的人工智能研究人员的一种手段，AAAI博士联盟已被证明是一种相对便宜且非常有效的模式。许多目前的评审员，导师，组织者和小组成员曾经是AAAI DCs的学生参与者。AAAI博士联盟的智力优势在于为初级研究人员提供了独特的机会，可以从社区内的高级研究人员那里获得与他们职业生涯相关的学术和社会问题的高质量反馈。作为DC计划的一部分，导师和学生在会议，小组讨论，工作午餐以及口头演讲和讨论中进行互动。对于许多学生来说，这是唯一的机会，从研究人员而不是他们的论文委员会成员在他们的家乡机构接受重点投入。学生不仅可以获得关于论文研究的演讲和获得关于他们工作的具体反馈的经验，还可以有机会讨论更多的个人问题，例如在完成博士学位后追求研究生涯时平衡工作和家庭。问题研究
