Extended deadline for applications: "Cities and Science" at the CEU Summer University, 18-27 July 2016
he CEU Summer University has extended the deadline for applications to the course
"Cities and Science: Urban History and the History of Science in the Study of Early Modern and Modern Europe"
to take place in Budapest, 18-27 July 2016.
New deadline for applications: 15 March 2016
This interdisciplinary summer
course will bring together senior and junior scholars of urban history,
the history of science, and other related fields in order to exchange
ideas in developing new research agendas with an aim to expand the
“urban variable” in the history of science and to designate a space for
the sciences in urban history from the early modern period to the early
20th century.
While the summer school will
have a distinct interdisciplinary and trans-epochal character, and
encourages practitioners of other fields, such as environmental studies,
gender studies, literature, science and technology studies, sociology,
cultural or social anthropology, to apply, potential participants should
demonstrate historical awareness and a general interest in history.
The programme is primarily designed for MA and PhD students, but it is open to early-career researchers as well.
The course is directed by
Markian Prokopovych and Katalin Stráner, and the faculty includes Bert
De Munck, Karl Hall, László Kontler, Kapil Raj, Ulrike Spring, and Roey
Sweet.
