CALL FOR PROPOSALS FOR THE CEU SUMMER UNIVERSITY 2004
The Summer University Program (SUN) of the Central European University (CEU)
announces a call for course proposals for its summer school held in
Budapest, July 5 - 30, 2004.
Program mission
The Summer University (SUN) of CEU aims to contribute to the growth of new
knowledge globally by offering high-level, research based courses for the
most gifted, research oriented, young academics and professionals. Our
courses are designed to provide help to develop and refine participants'
research and policy agenda as well as integrate their teaching with
innovative research.
While previously SUN was aimed almost exclusively at junior faculty from
Central and Eastern Europe and countries of the former Soviet Union, we now
encourage young faculty, postdocs and advanced doctoral students worldwide
to participate in our summer school. Scholarships will be made available for
those in need of financial assistance on an academic merit basis with
continued preference for applicants from post-communist countries and
emerging democracies.
SUN courses aim to open up new perspectives and generate new knowledge in
cross-disciplinary and cross-national inquiry into currently relevant issues
of cutting-edge research.
The program utilizes CEU's recognized regional expertise and our wider
network, involving internationally acclaimed faculty worldwide, creating a
space for mutually enriching dialogue between our regional and western
scholarship. The teaching teams' joint expertise is shared with participants
in a comparative framework during the summer courses.
