We are pleased to invite all graduate students as well as young
researchers from
all departments and schools of Harvard to attend the Islam in the West
Graduate
Student Research Workshop.
The seminar provides a forum for graduate students who are interested in
topics
related to Islam and Muslim communities in North America and Europe to:
1. Present and discuss their research areas and receive useful feedback from
their peers;
2. Discuss relevant topics and new research in this important but still
loosely
organized research area;
3. Engage in valuable interdisciplinary collaboration;
4. Engage in discussion and cooperation with visiting scholars working on
related issues.
Graduate students who are interested in participating in this forum are
welcome
to bring their research projects or ideas to our first meeting and sign
up for
the workshop which will take place once a month.
Dinner will be served.
Please RSVP to dkespos(a)fas.harvard.edu by Sunday October 28 noon.
