CALL for Nominations: LARC Graduate Student in Residence 2019-20

The Latin American Research Centre invites nominations for graduate students in residence for the 2019-20 academic year. Graduate Students in Residence are an important part of the LARC community. We encourage students to engage in a range of activities that include contributing to LARC publications or presenting their work in LARC-sponsored lectures or in the graduate student symposium. The Centre will provide space, a computer, and printer access. There is no monetary compensation.

University faculty are invited to nominate second-year MA students and post-candidacy exam PhD students from any discipline working on Latin American topics.  Please send nominations to larc@ucalgary.ca by Friday May 17, 2019.

Nominations should include the following information:

• The nominator’s letter.

• A one-page statement of the student’s research describing how it will further LARC’s mission.

• A letter of support from the student’s supervisor (if he or she is not the nominator).

• The student’s CV (with full contact information).

Incomplete nominations will not be considered. If you have any questions please let me know.
