Following the launch of the Global Europe Centre in Canterbury, our campuses in both
\nCanterbury and Brussels are currently organising a series of \u2018Global Europe\u2019 workshops, held for interested postgraduate research students at the University of Kent.<\/p>\n
Panels will cover all aspects of the study of Europe at large. These range from the practicalities of academic research, including information on funding and publishing opportunities or Brussels as a fieldwork location for EU studies, all the way to more thematic panels on the EU\u2019s foreign policies in the context of the Arab Spring.<\/p>\n
The first workshop will take place on the 27 June, 2013 in Brussels, followed by the second in Canterbury in September. The aim of the workshops, therefore, is twofold: to have external speakers and experts convey their insights about the study of Europe and the EU from an inside-out perspective, and in line with the philosophy of the Global Europe Centre, to facilitate inter-campus cooperation between Brussels and Canterbury researchers.<\/p>\n
