Dear all,<\/p>\n
We have a limited number of places available for MA students to attend the ‘Global Europe’ workshop, to be held at BSIS on 27 June (Wilson room). The programme is below. This workshop is a joint Canterbury-Brussels initiative, seeking to bring research students from both campuses together, covering diverse aspects of EU-related research. We invite in particular MA students with a strong research interest or planning to do a PhD. If you would like to participate, please contact Moritz Pieper ( mp442@kent.ac.uk ).<\/p>\n
Best wishes,
\nTom<\/p>\n
