Departmental Conversations
'What is the use of a book,' thought Alice, 'without pictures or conversations?'
Warwick's ECLS presents a series of informal conversations about student and staff research. These conversations consider our research: what we're doing, how we do it, how we plan it, and why it matters. There will be no assigned readings, and all ECLS students--undergraduate and postgraduate--are most welcome.
