IAMHIST master class on Media and History

Date: Friday January 13th, 2012 - 09.30 am
Location: University of Southern California (Los Angeles)


Are you a graduate or doctoral student, post-doc, or young professional
currently working on a project in which you engage issues concerning
historical film, radio or television or issues in media history? Are you
interested in presenting your project to a small group of experts and
peers? Then this master-class of the International Association for Media
and History may be just what you are looking for. Participants are expected
to give a short introduction to their project and to prepare some central
questions for discussion. Senior members of IAMHIST will engage with your
paper and discuss sources and strategies for developing the project.

The day is designed to be a networking event for emerging scholars and
media professionals and an opportunity to engage with leaders in the field
in a less formal setting than an academic conference. There is no charge
for attendance and lunch is included.

To apply for this event, send a 1-paragraph proposal of your project and
one paragraph bio to IAMIST president Nick Cull <cull @ usc.edu<mailto:
[email protected]>> and to Leen Engelen (info-contact @ iamhist.org. Deadline is
December 15th 2012.
