Department of French
The French Graduate Research Seminar
The French Graduate Research Seminar is a great opportunity to develop a stimulating dialogue amongst graduate students of the department and beyond. Sessions are open to all who wish to attend. Organised by graduates for graduates, the seminar is a unique chance to hear about the research of other students and get feedback from them on your own work in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Proposals for future seminars are welcome, especially from new members.

All seminars will take place in the Media Centre, Raised Faculty Building, Sidgwick Avenue, at 5.15 for a 5.30 start, unless otherwise indicated. Papers will be followed by discussion. Wine and cheese will be served. All are very welcome.
