Humanities & Social Sciences        PRAGUE

Research & Teaching Conference 

June 10-12, 2025

 

The Humanities & Social Sciences strand of the PRAGUE Research & Teaching Conference is open to all disciplines. It is interested in the humanities and the social sciences as both a site of academic research and as disciplines for innovation in teaching practice.

Whether case studies examining innovations in creative writing or examinations of best practice teaching in sociology, it sees these questions as central to the future of academic research and teaching. Including critiques of methods and practices of historical research as well as the first-hand examples of creative teaching in psychology or geography, it seeks to share knowledge on issues relevant across the humanities and the social sciences.


 

Themes

Other themes of interest at the conference include:

Teaching & Learning | Methods, modes of practice and innovations in both how we address research questions and how we teach core competencies across the humanities and social sciences.
Art & Design | Examples of innovative collaborations between artists, designers and social scientists in both teaching and research.
Health & Wellbeing | Considerations of how questions of mental health are socially framed and how cross-disciplinary social research informs health and wellbeing practice in the ‘field’ and in the classroom.
Built Environments | Examinations of how works of literature, film and sociological research have explored and influenced design teaching and practice across architecture, urban design and planning.
Science & Technology | Considerations of how technologies like AI inform the humanities and social sciences – whether as a subject or genre in literature, or as a tool for research and teaching.
