Workshop Description
We invite graduate students working on Europe to submit proposals for our PhD workshop. The workshop provides a unique opportunity to receive in-depth feedback on ongoing research from peers and senior scholars, engage in discussions on methodological and substantive challenges, and gain insights into academic job markets. The workshop is open to all methodological approaches and research areas within Europe and European politics.
While the expertise of the workshop leaders—Mareike Kleine (EU politics, international political economy, and international organizations) and Miguel Pereira (political behavior, elite politics, and comparative politics)—covers a broad spectrum, we welcome submissions on any relevant topic.
The workshop will feature two sessions dedicated to presentations and feedback, individual consultations with one or both workshop leaders, and a 1-hour Q&A session on European job markets.
We encourage proposals from students at various stages of their research.
APSA sponsors in-person & virtual dissertation workshops annually. Our in-person events are held on the Wednesday prior to the APSA Annual Meeting. Each full-day workshop includes six PhD candidates who present a dissertation chapter, along with two faculty members who lead the workshop and moderate discussions. Our virtual workshops are held over the summer or fall. Please direct any questions about the dissertation workshop program to grad@apsanet.org.
