Funded by the European Union and in collaboration with the Worldwide University Network (WUN), China in the World: Postgraduate Research Summer School provides research training in Chinese studies for PhD students and junior researchers from EU member and associated states, China and the USA.
The focus of the Research Summer School is on Modern and Contemporary Chinese history and the analysis of Chinese Society and Politics, the most dynamic areas of academic interest of our age. It is aimed to enhance the European research capacity on Chinese society, Chinese politics and modern and contemporary Chinese history through training in research approaches, academic judgement, scholarly interaction and critique of postgraduate research students and, based on all of which, to facilitate future global collaboration and exchange in social science and modern and contemporary history of China. The Postgraduate Research Summer School runs as a series of annual sessions in July 2006-2009. Each of the four Summer Schools covers a different theme: * July 2006 (Nanjing, China): China and Globalisation in Historical Perspective; * July 2007 (Leeds, UK): China, Globalisation and Social Stratification; * July 2008 (Bristol, UK): China, Europe and the World; * July 2009 (Oslo, Norway): China Global: Nation State and Ethnicity. [...] The 2007 Postgraduate Research Summer School will be held in the University of Leeds from 24th to 27th July 2007. Please consult the programme and entry requirements for details."
