Summer school for doctoral researchers

STS summer school for early career researchers
Date: June 8, 2022
Location: Metsätalo, Helsinki

Are you an early career scholar in the field of science and technology studies, working on your PhD or starting your career as a postdoc? Would you like to get feedback to your research plan, funding application or research paper from experienced STS scholars?

If yes, then please apply to our summer school that will be organised one day prior to the STS symposium. The summer school consists of a workshop and feedback sessions in smaller groups in which peers and senior scholars give feedback on the pre-submitted papers. 

We are interested in a wide range of research as long as there is a topical, theoretical, and/or methodological connection to the field of STS.

If you are interested, please apply by sending a motivation letter (max 500 words) explaining your stage of career, why you would like to participate and what you expect from the summer school. We have a limited amount of places in the summer school and the participants will be chosen based on the motivation letters. 

  • The summer school is free of charge. Lunch at own cost.
  • The deadline for applications: February 28, 2022
  • Notifications on acceptance: by March 15, 2022
  • Deadline to submit own paper: May 6, 2022.
