Study programme
The center will offer a comprehensive study programme for Danish and international early-stage researchers (PhDs and postdocs) based on a recurring annual cycle. Given the assumption that there will be an average population of 30+ ESRs at any given time, we stipulate to host every year 12-14 students.
Activities and theme
- A monthly reading colloquium focusing on one book for each session
- A biannual writing retreat for students in intensive writing phases
- A one-week symposium organized in collaboration with alternating international partners (European and overseas)
- A national seminar organized in collaboration with relevant Danish institutions
Every semester will be organized around a general theme with reference to the research platform and catering to the relevant student population, creating synergy between the colloquium activities and the symposia. PhD-students attending a full annual cycle will earn 10 ECTS-credits. All activities will have places allotted to continuing education for professionals in the art field. Writing retreats provide space and time for intensive writing as well as exchange with fellow researchers and practitioners.
