New Historians Conference 2017
Victoria University of Wellington
4-5 Sep 2017
The postgraduate students in the History Programme at Victoria University invite papers on all historical themes, topics, or issues from MA and PhD students. Interdisciplinary contributions exploring any aspect of the past are especially welcome.
Now in its 12th Year, the New Historians Conference provides the opportunity for postgraduate students from New Zealand—and overseas—to present their work to fellow students and pro-fessionals in a supportive environment. The Conference provides an excellent opportunity to receive feedback on work, and interact with students from around the country.
Presentations are to be 20 minutes long, with 10 minutes allowed for questions. Computers and projectors will be available for use.
There is a $25 registration fee, payable on Day 1 of the Conference. There will also be a confer-ence dinner on Monday 4 September, which will be paid for separately. Lunches and snacks on both days of the conference will be provided.
Please submit an abstract of no more than 200 words, a brief biographical statement of no more than 100 words, and your contact details to newhistorians@vuw.ac.nz. The deadline for submissions is Monday 24 July, 2017.
