PhD Community

We study a wide variety of topics. Examples include the study of gendered logics of protection of civilians in armed conflict, the use of sexuality in political discourse, and women’s underrepresentation in organizational authority. Likewise, among us you will find PhD students employing a wide variety of qualitative and quantitative methods and data, such as participant observation, interviews, critical frame and narrative analysis, and quantitative analysis of survey and register data.

Interested in joining and/or presenting your work during one of our monthly meetings? You are most welcome! Get in touch with Sonja Evaldsson.

Activities

The ARC-GS PhD Club hosts monthly interdisciplinary meeting during which PhDs can present their work (in-progress), receive feedback and exchange ideas. The PhD club has been a profoundly constructive and critical space with a wonderful atmosphere, that many PhDs have already used a place to practice and experiment with presenting and (preliminary) research findings and ideas. Whenever possible our PhD club also organizes Master classes and one-day seminars with visiting scholars.
