The Centre for Policy Research is conducting a two-week Summer Workshop on Strategic Studies, that aims to bring together a group of twenty advanced graduate students, young analysts and junior faculty members from the fields of international relations, military studies, political science and public policy. It will look closely at issues rooted in strategic and military policy, whilst equipping the participants with the necessary conceptual frameworks and methods of analysis to conduct advanced historical and theoretical research.
The workshop will be coordinated by Srinath Raghavan, Centre for Policy Research, New Delhi and Rudra Chaudhuri, King’s College London. Additionally, ten experts will deliver visiting lectures on specific subjects.
The Workshop will be held at Centre for Policy Research, New Delhi, from 23 July to 3 August 2012. The participants will be selected based on their written applications. In some cases, they may be required to give a telephonic interview as well. The cost of participant’s travel within India along with room and board in New Delhi will be borne by the Workshop.
Further details of the workshop can be found here and here. For any specific queries you can email to cprsecuritystudies@gmail.com. Please note that the final deadline for application is 8 June 2012.
