The Department’s Higher Research Seminar Series
The Higher Research Seminar is the main collective seminar of the Department. The research staff and invited national and international leading scholars present ongoing research and analyses of a broad range of exciting topics of relevance for Political Science. Across the semester, you are invited to attend the Higher Research Seminar, which is held Wednesday between 13.15-14.30 on Wednesdays between 1.15pm and 2.30pm. Until further notice, all meetings are digital, and a Zoom link will be sent out via email before each seminar.
We hope to go back to hybrid and physical seminars once the infection rate of COVID-19 has decreased.
