Sixth International Seminar for the Promotion of Interdisciplinary Research and International Exchange
Call for Proposal
Reconceptualizing Cross Border Academic Mobility in the Interdisciplinary Research Agenda
The International Affairs Office of the School of Letters/Graduate School of Humanities, Osaka University is organizing an interdisciplinary International Seminar for young scholars under the theme “Reconceptualizing Cross Border Academic Mobility in the Interdisciplinary Research Agenda” and is subsequently planning to publish the papers in peer-reviewed booklet with ISBN code.
This International Seminar attempts to reconceptualize cross-border academic mobility by integrating insights from different fields of study in Humanities and Social Sciences. Cross-border academic mobility refers to the movement of students, scholars, and academic staff across national boundaries for education, teaching, and research purposes. It is expected that reconceptualizing cross border academic mobility through an interdisciplinary perspective would allow for a more comprehensive understanding of its complexities and challenges, which would subsequently contribute to developing new ideas.
The purpose of this seminar is to provide a free space in which new thoughts can be developed through discussions and intellectual interactions. Furthermore, the seminar targets to contribute to fostering the next generation of scholars who would be armed with interdisciplinary knowledge in order to contribute to achieving sustainability goals.
We would like to invite young scholars to share their research outcomes with their overseas counterparts and receive comments from different perspectives for further improvement.
