CfP - 16th Annual Graduate Student Colloquium in Armenian Studies, 2 February 2018, UCLA

16th Annual Graduate Student Colloquium in Armenian Studies
University of California, Los Angeles, Friday, February 2, 2018

We enthusiastically invite graduate students and recent post-docs (Ph.D within the last two years) in fields associated with Armenian Studies (broadly defined) to present their recent research. Work in progress is encouraged. Research papers are accepted on all aspects of Armenian studies, including, but not limited to: literature, history, gender studies, sociology, anthropology, economics, and art history. We encourage comparative themes and interdisciplinary approaches. Panel submissions are also welcome.

Thanks to a generous donation, a $500 prize will be awarded for the best paper presented on an aspect of the history and culture of the Armenian community of Salmast, Iran.

Priority of acceptance will be given to those who have not presented at the colloquium before. Limited travel grants will be available to assist those who would otherwise be unable to attend. Travel grant applications will be sent to all invited participants.
