During more than ten years, the Barcelona Supercomputing Center has been receiving undergraduate, master and PhD students, and providing them training and skills to develop a successful career. Many of those students are now researchers and experts at BSC and in other international research institutions. In fact, the number of students has never decreased. On the contrary, their number and research areas have grown and we noticed that these highly qualified students, especially the PhD candidates, needed a forum to present their findings and fruitfully exchange ideas. As a result, in 2014, the first BSC Doctoral Symposium was born. Last year, a total of 34 presentations were given, 32 posters were exhibited, a two days training on an Introduction to Scientific Writing was conducted; and we reached more than 90 attendees. Furthermore, we opened the participation to students all over the world and have succeeded enrolling students from different countries In this third edition of the BSC Doctoral Symposium we have planned a keynote speaker’ talk, and two extensive training
