AHRA ARCHITECTURAL HUMANITIES RESEARCH ASSOCIATION Annual Research Student Symposium
AHRA Annual Research Student Symposium
Thu, Apr 6, 2006 to
Fri, Apr 7, 2006
Location(s): University of Edinburgh
FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS: Proposals due in by Friday 6 January 2006
The Architectural Humanities Research Association invites proposals from graduate students for contributions to its 3rd Annual Student Research Symposium, which will be held from 6th - 7th April 2006, at the School of Arts, Culture and Environment, University of Edinburgh.
Proposals concerning research in any area of the architectural humanities will be eligible for consideration (architectural history, theory, culture, design, urbanism, etc.)
In addition, this year we will particularly welcome contributions that deal with aspects of architectural pedagogy (including the teaching of - and the inter-relationships between - design, history and theory; approaches to research training and supervision; historical and contemporary pedagogic environments and practices; the relationship between the academy and the profession; architecture within the disciplinary configuration of the university; alternative pedagogies; etc). Our intention is that these will be organised as a separate strand within the main symposium.
Papers will be 20 minutes long.
The symposium will also include a number of round-table sessions, allowing research students to give short, 10 minute, presentations related to interpretative, methodological or other issues arising from work with which they are currently engaged. It is anticipated that each of these sessions will consist of 3-4 presentations followed by an extensive discussion.
Proposals for papers should be 500 words maximum: those for presentations in round-table sessions 250 words maximum. Proposals should be sent by email by Friday 6 January 2006 to AHRA06@ed.ac.uk (please label the subject field: AHRA06). Indicate clearly in the main text of the email whether the submission concerns a paper or a round-table presentation. Responses to prospective contributors will be sent by 31 January 2006.
Submissions will be reviewed by the organising committee and selected for inclusion in the symposium on that basis. The organising committee is comprised of Dr Ella Chmielewska (Cultural Studies, University of Edinburgh), Dr Mark Dorrian (AHRA and University of Edinburgh), Richard Patterson (AHRA and University of Brighton), Professor Jeremy Till (AHRA and University of Sheffield), Dr Igea Troiani (Oxford Brookes University), and a panel of graduate students from the University of Edinburgh.
Selected material from the conference will be published in a special issue of Edinburgh Architectural Research. We anticipate making all material presented at the conference available as a digital archive.
There will be no charge to attend the symposium. Accommodation in Edinburgh can be booked via www.murray-accommodation.co.uk Email: mqa@murray-accommodation.co.uk
AHRA promotes, supports, develops and disseminates research in all areas of architectural humanities. Further information can be found at:www.ahra-architecture.org.uk Contact: jonathan.hale@nottingham.ac.uk
