Our Joint Sessions of Workshops provides a unique platform for scholars at all stages of their careers, from all parts of the world, and all sub-fields of political science, to come together for several days of intense discussion, feedback and collaboration.
Over its five-decade history, it has helped tens of thousands of scholars hone their research, grow their networks and secure publishing opportunities.
After two successful fully virtual instalments, we are hoping to bring the discipline face-to-face again, with the 2022 edition planned to be held at The University of Edinburgh and online, from 19–22 April.
Registration and funding applications are now closed.
Applications are accepted between Thursday 24 February and Sunday 6 March (midnight UK time).
Open to PhD students and early career scholars from ECPR Full Member Institutions.
Available to individual scholars who are not eligible to apply for our standard event participant funding scheme.
If you applied for funding, please do not register until you have heard about the outcome of your application.
For the second year running, we are delighted to be opening up our Stein Rokkan Lecture to the wider ECPR community, as part of our House Lecture series. Stay tuned, more details coming soon.
If you are attending the Joint Sessions, you don't need to register – a link to join online will be automatically added to your Joint Sessions Itinerary.
