This workshop addresses particularly Master’s and PhD students who have little or no experience with publishing their own work in academic journals, but also other early-career researchers. It will be held at the STS department.

We especially encourage you to take part in this workshop if you plan to submit a paper to the special issue of the Graduate Journal of Social Science on the conference topics that will be published in 2015.
