The Institute for Medieval Studies (IEM – NOVA FCSH) and the Municipality of Castelo de Vide are organizing a Fall School for twenty Master’s and PhD students in medieval studies on the 4th and 5th October 2022.
The goal of this initiative is to create a place for open debate and experience sharing in which the students can increase their knowledge and skill set, benefit from the presence of renowned specialists from respected European universities, and promote an interdisciplinary approach to the selected topic.
The Fall School is structured by theoretical sessions followed by debates, research workshops with a hands-on approach, and a study visit to Castelo de Vide’s Historical Centre.
Students will also present their research’s subject and methodology in poster format to be debated during the School, in a reserved session. Poster printing is supplied by the organization. The languages are Spanish and English.
