Each year, the Architectural History & Theory – MSc programme welcomes around ten guest speakers and colleagues to present an evening seminar on their research. The events are a fantastic opportunity to hear about the latest work in the field from scholars working across the globe. The seminars are free and everyone is welcome.
This academic year, the AH&T Seminar Series will run as live virtual events. Links to the relevant event registration pages for Semester One events are available below. More information on Semester Two events will follow soon.
Please contact Dr Moa Carlsson and Dr Elizabeth J. Petcu if you have any questions or access requirements: Moa.Carlsson@ed.ac.uk, Elizabeth.Petcu@ed.ac.uk. More information can be found here.
