The 3rd Annual ToRS-SAXO PhD seminar
We are pleased to invite PhD fellows to participate in the Annual ToRS-Saxo PhD seminar, which will take place on 27th November at the University of Copenhagen (KUA-Amager). The idea behind the seminar is to offer PhD students and other Faculty members dealing with the subjects of ancient history, archaeology, cultural heritage and museology insight into the ongoing projects taking place at both institutes. We also encourage participation by PhD students from other institutions.
The presentations should be in English and limited to 20 minutes each with an additional 10 minutes for questions and discussion. The only requirement regarding the content of the paper is that it should deal with the PhD project in question. As PhD students are all at different stages of their projects, it is up to each individual to decide how many of their results to present (if any yet), e.g. the paper could deal with a specific topic, preliminary results, problems and questions, field work, methods and approaches.
You will get the following: 1.5 ECTS for paper presentation and 0.2 ECTS for seven hours of participation.
Coffee, tea and cake will be served during the seminar, and there will be free lunch for all the participants at KUA’s canteen. Therefore, please, let us know as soon as possible if you are joining us for lunch, so that we can order the exact number of coupons.
Applicants are requested to register by the 12th October 2015, and submit an abstract by the 15th November 2015 to qnx105@hum.ku.dk and thochr@hum.ku.dk
The abstract should be in English, between 50 and 150 words, and provided with a title, name and academic affiliation.
The seminar will take place on 27th November, from 9:30 until 16:00 ca., depending on the final number of speakers. Room: KUA2 - 15A.0.13
If you have any questions or enquiries, please do not hesitate to contact us.
