PhD and Post-Doctoral Researcher Biannual Workshop

 PhD and Post-Doctoral Researcher Biannual Workshops

The UCD Centre for Constitutional Studies is delighted to host biannual workshops for PhD and postdoctoral researchers at the Sutherland School of Law. 

These workshops are designed to support researchers by providing a platform to connect with one another, present research in a safe space and gain valuable feedback from colleagues. They are a great opportunity to get used to articulating a research question or approach, or to practice delivering a brief presentation on the status of a project. The workshops can also be a forum to outline any difficulties encountered in a project – theoretical or practical - and to gain insights from others on how to move forward. 

Each session includes presentations from two speakers –PhD candidates or postdoctoral researchers – whose research touches on any aspect of constitutional law, constitutional politics or constitutional theory. Presentations should be approximately 15 minutes long, followed by 10 minutes of feedback from the group. 

Speakers will also have the option of contributing a short blog piece on their presentation topic after the workshop which will be added to the Centre’s website.

To present at a workshop, please contact either Professor Eoin Carolan, Centre Director, at eoin.carolan@ucd.ie or Seána Glennon, Chief Outreach Officer, at seana.glennon@ucdconnect.ie with a short paragraph on the proposed topic. Please include the subject line ‘Centre for Constitutional Studies PhD and Post-Doctoral Researcher Workshop’.
