Description

The Scottish Graduate School of Social Science welcomes postgraduate research students to the following advanced training event:

Ethnomethodology and Conversation Analysis

7-8 June 2014

University of Edinburgh

This is the first in a series of biannual meets for doctoral students undertaking research in the allied fields of Ethnomethodology and Conversation Analysis. The purpose of these meets is to establish, build and support a doctoral research community across the UK and Europe.

Each meet will offer a flexible mix of workshops, data sessions, reading groups and presentations. The idea is to provide an informal environment for students to come and share ideas, ask questions, showcase research, etc. We also want to encourage and emphasise these meets as opportunities to socialise and network with your EMCA peers.

Plenary speaker

The Scottish Graduate School of Social Science is the UK's largest facilitator of funding, training and support for doctoral students in social science. By combining the expertise of sixteen universities across Scotland, the school facilitates world-class PhD research. The school is funded jointly by the Economic and Social Research Council and the Scottish Funding Council.

SGSSS is a highly attractive environment for doctoral research. Not only do our partner universities offer an excellent research environment, we also offer comprehensive and world-class research training in a number of discipline-specific and interdisciplinary pathways. In addition, the school manages a programme of advanced training courses and an annual summer school which together offers our students further opportunities to develop their research, knowledge exchange and transferable professional skills.

At the heart of the SGSSS is the Doctoral Training Partnership (formerly the Doctoral Training Centre) in Scotland. The SGSSS was established in 2011 and is the biggest of 14 Economic & Social Research Council (ESRC) accredited DTPs in the United Kingdom. The bid for renewed funding has been successful and from 1 October 2017 the SGSSS will be one of the ESRC's 14 Doctoral Training Partnerships (DTP)
