Abstract: The Web Science conference series (WebSci) has become a prime venue for Web related research across disciplines. The interdisciplinary PhD symposium is an important component of this endeavor. Bringing PhD students from various disciplines together is, according to our understanding, an important step towards a comprehensive investigation of the Web. As such, we are trying to establish a forum for the next generation of Web Scientists. Following the spirit of ’unity in diversity’ we hope to bring together the many facets of Web related research covering computer science, the social sciences, marketing, economics, and other fields. We believe that a joint understanding beyond the limits of one’s own discipline will allow the Web to develop into a more interdisciplinary and inclusive future.
