Description: Yesterday evening the winners of the 3-Minute Ph.D. Competition in the Social Sciences were announced by Prof. Dehousse, president of the EUI. The first prize goes to Matilda Louise Greig (Department of History and Civilization) for her video 'War for Sale in the Nineteenth Century: A study of Peninsular War veterans' memoirs'. The EUI recognizes the outstanding presentation of her thesis by financing the publication of an open-access article. The 2nd prize goes to Ileana Dana Nicolau (Department of Political and Social Sciences) and the 3rd prize to Gaël Sánchez Cano (also from the Department of History and Civilization). The competition invited doctoral candidates of the EUI to present their research topic in a short, three minute video to multiple audiences with no background in that specific research area.

Description: Universities across Europe increasingly expect academics to know how to teach in Higher Education and to be prepared to teach international audiences. The EUI is organising a Summer School "Introduction to Teaching in Higher Education" open to doctoral and postdoctoral scholars in the Social Sciences and Humanities. The Summer School takes place on the EUI campus in Florence from 4 to 9 July 2018. Applications are now open and will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis.

Description: Please join us on Tuesday 10th April for the award ceremony of the 1st edition of the Three-Minute Ph.D. Competition in the Social Sciences. The three best videos of the competition will be screened during the event. The winner will be announced by Prof. Renaud Dehousse. The ceremony will take place on April 10 at 6:30 pm in Bar Fiasco.
