Graduate Student Conference
The Heidelberg Graduate Student Conference in English Studies is organized annually by the students of Heidelberg University's MA program in English Literature and Linguistics. The conference offers the opportunity for young researchers and scholars to present and discuss current academic topics in their fields. While every year the initial design of the program and the organization of the conference are in the hands of the students in the English Studies MA program, students of other programs and departments are, in the next step, also invited to contribute and present their own research. The English Studies Graduate Conference was originally created with the goal to enhance debate and intellectual exchange, and it has successfully done so in past years.
