pants, and receive mentoring about career planning and career op-
tions. The student session will expose students to different  ar-
eas  of  research within autonomous agents and help build profes-
sional connections within  the  international  community  of  re-
searchers.

Multiple scholarships are available for students wishing to attend
the student session. In addition to the student session, scholars-
hip holders will have access to all PRIMA sessions (keynotes, tec-
hnical sessions, student session and tutorials) and also to  every
other PRIMA/PRICAI sessions and events, including the PRIMA
workshop (http://prima2016.di.unito.it/npmase.html) and the PRICAI
Student Symposium on the Artificial Intelligence and Applications
(http://aiat.in.th/pricai2016/front/show/ds-ai), as well as the

The scholarships are available to students at all levels (doctoral,

post-graduate students should submit  items 1, 2, and 3  described
below. Undergraduate students need to submit a letter of interest.


Applicants should submit:

1.  a  two-page  extended  abstract  that summarizes the research
problem being investigated, the specific contributions made,  and
directions  for  the remaining work. The extended abstract has to
be formatted using the LNCS format, and is at most  to  2  pages,
including  references. When writing it remember that the audience
might not be necessarily knowledgeable in  the  narrow  topic  of
your thesis. Be sure to introduce the content at a level that the
general audience can understand it, but also include enough  low-
level details for the experts to understand your unique contribu-
tions. Accepted extended abstracts will be published in the PRIMA
Proceedings and be presented briefly at the student session.

2.  a curriculum vitae (2 pages) with background (name, universi-
ty), education (degree sought, year/status  in  degree,  previous
degrees), employment, and relevant experience in research (publi-
cations, presentations, conferences attended, etc).

3. name of the thesis advisor and information,  including  title,
department, affiliation and email address. A request for a letter
