At Interspeech 2012, ISCA Student Advisory Committee plans to organize 2 events
that will enrich students experience of attending the conference: a lunch with the experts

Please find the details of the events below:
1. 'Students meet Experts' : Interspeech 2012 Student Event 12.00-13.30, September 11th, 2012
Following the success of the Student Lunch Event at Interspeech 2011, ISCA Student Advisory
Committee (ISCA SAC) with the support of ISCA Board and Interspeech 2012 organizes Student
Lunch Event at Interspeech 2012, where students will be given the possibility to discuss their
research themes, issues and educational topics with experts in the scientific community and
with other students sharing their interests. This meeting will take place in an informal setup
during one buffet lunch session to help people bonding and easily experience a constructive
discussion. Small groups of students will talk about common issues with a senior reference
member for the research are they are interested in while having a meal with the goal of
making available to the new members of the scientific community the experience of the
researchers attending Interspeech: the most important international conference concerning
speech technology. Students will be asked to register for one of the tables before the time
of the conference on the ISCA SAC website, and the research areas covered will follow those
established for the main conference program.

future in the field. Students attending the event can get a perspective of the work and
challenges in the field from the industry point of view. Students will be asked to register
before the time of the conference on the ISCA SAC website.
