Postgraduate Research Students Conference
Postgraduate Research Students Conference 2026
The 29th Postgraduate Research Students Conference of the German Historical Institute London will take place on Thursday 26th and Friday 27th February 2026. The Conference aims to give postgraduate research students from the UK and Ireland working on German history the opportunity to present their work-in-progress and to discuss their research with other students working in the same field.
The Conference is intended for postgraduate research scholars working on German history from the Middle Ages to the present at a UK or Irish university. Ph.D. students at all stages are encouraged to apply. All participants will be expected to briefly present their research projects, but if capacity is limited, preference will be given to second- and third-year students.
A course on German Palaeography is planned for the first day of the conference.
Application details for the 2026 conference will be posted later in 2025.
