Call for Papers out for DoingIPS PhD Seminar Series London 6th edition
We are excited to announce that the Call for Papers of the DoingIPS London PhD Seminar Series is now out. At its sixth edition, this year’s PhD Seminar Series will run over a period of 10 months, from September 2023 to June 2024. The series is funded by the LISS-DTP and organised through Queen Mary University of London, King’s College London, and London School of Economics.
Jointly organised by PhD researchers and the DoingIPS convenors, the seminar series brings together UK-based PhD students from a variety of institutions and disciplinary traditions to present their work, invite external discussants, and gather focussed feedback. Participants meet once a month in one of the three host institutions –KCL, LSE and QMUL – for a total of ten, 2-hours-long seminars throughout the academic year.
