Graduate Seminar Programme in the Social Sciences

The Graduate Seminar Programme in the Social Sciences is open to all interested DPhil, master’s and other postgraduate students and is intended to provide an opportunity not only to discuss recent research findings and methodological approaches but to meet with other students and academic staff.

Invited speakers present a paper exploring a topic and methodologies relevant to a range of subject disciplines followed by a discussion. The programme is convened by Dr Vlad Mykhnenko, and takes place in Rewley House. The seminar includes tea, coffee and cake. 

Please note: this seminar series is on hold for the 2022-23 academic yet. We hope to offer this again in 2023-24.
