Academic Visions: Lectures and Discussions (2) 1600-SZD-ID-WN2
The interdisciplinary subject is aimed at all the School's doctoral students. During the course, the most exciting research conducted at the University of Warsaw by various disciplines within the School will be presented, extending beyond the narrow confines of any single discipline. A significant portion of the meetings, however, will be devoted to lectures by prominent representatives of social sciences from outside UW (including from foreign universities). Therefore, the subject is an extraordinary opportunity to expand one's knowledge and scientific horizons and draw inspiration from sometimes unconventional topics that defy frameworks and paradigms. It is a fascinating journey into the unknown for individuals from disciplines outside the given ones. For those within the disciplines, it is a chance to meet well-known and vital figures from their research world.
