Dates: 14 - 16 December 2012
Programme: Dumfries Residential Research Methods Workshop Programme [Word]

This residential workshop for postgraduate researchers consists of an intensive two day programme of interactive events and will be held at the University of Glasgow’s Dumfries campus.

It is designed as a forum where both pre- and post-fieldwork PhD students from across the 5 schools within the College of Social Sciences may come together to share their experiences of conducting research and to lend support to postgraduate researchers about to embark upon fieldwork research perhaps for the first time.

Location

All participants will stay in the Aston Hotel in Dumfries. The Centre for Russian, Central and East European Studies (CRCEES) will cover the costs of accommodation (which includes dinner, bed and breakfast). Transport from Glasgow to Dumfries will be arranged by CRCEES.

Eligibility

The Workshop is only open to registered PhD students in the College of Social Sciences. Places are limited to 30 PhD students. PhD researchers based at the Dumfries Campus are recommended to stay in the Aston Hotel.

All participants are expected to prepare a poster for the Workshop displaying the research methods they have employed in their fieldwork (or intend to employ) and how these have helped (or will help) you to achieve your research objectives.

CRCEES provides a poster template for this purpose: CRCEES Poster Template [Word]
