CRDMC - EVENTS
GIORNATE DI STUDIO
GRADUATE STUDENTS EDITION
The AAIS Critical Race, Diasporas, and Migrations Caucus will host two Fall events for graduate students in the field of Italian Studies whose research in any period intersects with the broad parameters of critical race, diasporas and migration studies. These events are open to graduate students at all stages. The goal for each event is to convene through research and mentorship to discuss, for example, methodologies, application to pedagogy, presenting one’s research to the academic job market, publishing strategies, and the public side of CRDM beyond the academy.
28 SEPTEMBER 2023
Research Mentorship Workshop
The first event will take place on Thursday, September 28, 2023, 4:00–5:30 pm ET. This event will be a virtual Research Mentorship Workshop, where members of the CRDM executive committee will provide participants with one-on-one feedback on their current research projects. This event will be restricted to selected participants; acceptance will be based on the strength and precision of the research abstract.
20 OCTOBER 2023
Graduate Student Research Symposium
The second event will take place on Friday, October 20, 2023, 4:00–5:30 pm ET. This event will be a virtual Graduate Student Research Symposium, where panel participants will present their work to all attendees, with Q&As to follow. This event is open to all AAIS members.
The AAIS Critical Race, Diasporas, and Migrations Caucus invites current graduate students interested in participating to submit a 200-word abstract of their research. Students are asked to indicate in their submission email which of the two events (see above) they would like to participate in; applicants interested in taking part in both events should rank them in order of preference. Please send your abstract and CV by September 22, 2023 to Michela Ardizzoni (michela.ardizzoni@colorado.edu) and Kate Driscoll (kate.driscoll@duke.ed). Selected participants will be notified by September 23, 2023.
