Research Congress Call for Papers 2019

DLSU Research Congress 2019

De La Salle University, Manila, Philippines

June 19-21, 2019

Theme: KNOWLEDGE BUILDING TOWARDS INDUSTRY 4.0

The Fourth Industrial Revolution is expected to bring disruptive socio-economic shifts as a result of the introduction of emerging technologies that will change business models and lifestyles. These shifts will inevitably create both opportunities and threats. Research universities play an important role in acting as the “leading edge” of society, by creating new knowledge that allows for more dynamic and adaptive responses to these disruptions. De La Salle University’s 2019 Research Congress, with the theme “Knowledge Building towards Industry 4.0,” highlights the role of university research in responding to various aspects of the imminent Fourth Industrial Revolution.
