Volunteers
Humanities Graduate Conference 2019 is looking for co-organizers!
Deadline: 5 October, 2018 at 13.00
The Humanities Graduate Conference is organized for and by RMA-students and PhD’s. This means that joining our organization goes much further than doing shifts at the registration desk. Both PhD’s and RMA’s are responsible for the entire conference, starting with the selection of a theme, writing all the conference materials, the invitation of speakers, making sure we stay within budget, and running the conference days themselves. If you are currently an RMA-student at one of the four institutes of the Faculty of the Humanities of Utrecht University (History and Art History (OGK), Institute for Cultural Inquiry (ICON), Philosophy and Religious Studies (OFR) and Utrecht Institute of Linguistics (OTS) ) and you are interested in joining our organization, please fill in this APPLICATION FORM.
We are looking for people to join the organizing committee, the review committee and volunteers to help out on the conference days themselves.
