ESHET Young Scholars grants

ESHET YOUNG SCHOLARS GRANTS

ESHET invites young scholars -- persons currently enrolled in a PhD, or who have been awarded a PhD no more than two years prior to the date of the ESHET conference (and regardless of age) -- to submit their work to the Young Scholars Seminar to be held on the occasion of the ESHET Annual conference.

Papers co-authored by PhD supervisors or other senior researchers are not eligible.

The grants for the scholars selected to the Young Scholars Seminar are sponsored by the European Journal of the History of Economic Thought. Up to six submissions will be selected. For those selected presenters who attend the conference in person, the travel expenses will be covered up to €300, the accommodation costs up to €80/night for three nights, and no registration fee will be charged. Moreover, the grantee scholars will be invited to the conference dinner. The authors of the selected papers will have 20 minutes each to present the paper, and a senior scholar will discuss it. Papers may be on any topic relevant to the history of economics, and are not restricted to the conference theme.
