Back to Mesopolhis

Mark your calendars!

Mesopolhis is back in action! Join us on Friday 20 September from 1.30pm to 5.15pm at the Espace Philippe Seguin (room 101).

Round table on «The making of the thesis: what is the current state of research training in the social sciences and humanities?» :

Speakers: Maena Berger (EHESS), Sixtine Deroure (Paris 1), François Dumasy (Mesopolhis), Necati Gümüs (Mesopolhis), Simon Mangon (Mesopolhis), Alix Philippon (Mesopolhis).

This round-table discussion looks at the issue of research training in the social sciences and humanities, based on the presentation of the book La fabrique de la thèse. A collective guide to a personal exercise (Mangon, Garapon, Jeanmougin, Judell, 2024) in which several young researchers from the laboratory took part. The aim of the MESOPOLHIS autumn session is to initiate a discussion between tenured researchers, young PhDs and doctoral students on the doctoral practice and its supervision, with a view to a broader exchange on the contemporary challenges of research training and the best ways to support young researchers at the start of their careers.
