University of Toronto: 22nd Annual Nmcgsa Symposium

The NMCGSA Symposium is an annual academic conference organized by the Department of Near and Middle East Civilizations, at the University of Toronto.

The Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations Graduate Students' Association of the University of Toronto invites proposals for the 21st Annual Graduate Students' Symposium to be held on March 9, 2017 (Hart House). The NMCGSA Symposium provides an opportunity for promising graduate students to share their original research with the broader scholarly community in a conference-like forum, and to publish

their presentations as proceedings. By annually bringing together specialists in the ancient, medieval and modern Near and Middle East, the symposium provides a unique opportunity for interdisciplinary discourse focused on the study of this region and its cognates. The 2017 symposium aims to highlight this diversity in order to foster communication and exchange across disciplinary boundaries, celebrating archaeology, history (modern, medieval and ancient), anthropology, art, comparative literature, philosophy, language, religion and political science. Programme Schedule
Two concurrent sessions will be running throughout the day at Hart House.
8.45 am to 9.15 am - Event Registration
9.15 am to 9.30 am - Opening Remarks
9.30 am to 12.10 pm - Morning Programme - Two sessions
