We are delighted to announce the CBRL Graduate Network: Skills Development Seminar Series (2025 – 2026). A new online programme designed to support early career researchers working across the Levant.
Aimed at MA and PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, and early career academics, the series offers monthly sessions that focus on practical research methodologies and professional development.
With an interdisciplinary approach spanning archaeology, anthropology, history, cultural heritage, and the social sciences, the programme creates a collaborative space to share skills, navigate research challenges, and build a strong scholarly community connected to the region.
All lectures will be online via Zoom, at 6 PM (Amman) – 4 PM (UK – BST).
