PhD-relay at the Medieval Research Cluster
Do you have a medieval aspect to your dissertation? Sign up for the interdisciplinary PhD seminar on 7. June 2019 to meet your fellow researchers.
Main content
The Bergen Medieval Research Cluster invites all PhD candidates in Bergen with a project containing a medieval aspect to an interdisciplinary PhD relay.
Our relay is organized as a seminar where each candidate gets 15 minutes to present her or his project, followed by 15 minutes of discussion. This way, candidates get an opportunity to establish useful connections to students across disciplinary boundaries, and get feedback from scholars at the Cluster. The language will be English. The seminar gives 1 ECTS-credit.
This year, the Ph.D relay will begin with at two hour introduction to the Bergen traditions of medieval research, and about the newly established Medieval Research Cluster.
Sign up by sending a short abstract of your presentation/PhD project to the Cluster’s coordinator, Irene Baug, by 15. May.
