Summer schools

[Quantifiquatus]

I'm a master's student in Politics at the University of Oxford. I really want to do a PhD either here or in the US, and I'm trying to build my academic profile by publishing one or two articles as well as going to conferences. However, I find it very hard to find when and where conferences will be that I could potentially apply for (historical political sociology in my case). Where and how do people usually find when conferences are? Especially considering some are organized by journals, others by universities or departments, I don't even know where to begin my search. Any advice?

Thank you!

From personal experience, you usually find those out from professors! They tendo to be part of the groups and get emails about  events!!

Another great source is your departament at school, they tend also to know about conferences.

 

So if you already have research done, I would shoot a couple emails to some professors to see if there is anything going on, and for them to keep you in mind if they receive anything in the near future!!
