After a few short ‘welcome’ addresses, the welcome plenary session introduces each Summer School main course Instructor for a very short presentation (with 1 slide) about his/her course. If this stirs your interest or raises questions, you may informally discuss these with the Instructors during the welcome reception from 19:15. Following this, the Academic Convenors present a summary of the course programme for the 5th ECPR Winter School in Methods and Techniques (WSMT), including new and original courses plus information about the ‘training tracks’ scheme across the WSMT and SSMT. |

This event follows the same concept as a "science slam”. Using the theme 'shocking', competitors have eight-minutes to perform entertaining and fun style presentations on current topics. Each 'slammer' is judged by the audience through a decibelmetre. The slam will be recorded 'live' and posted on the ECPR website. The top three slammers will receive prizes worth €500, €350 and €200 for either a voucher towards a Methods School up to 2017, or ECPR Press books. To submit a proposal email benoit.rihoux@uclouvain.be by 12 July. |
