Invitation to the Study Day on May 6, 2019

In February 2019, the AFSP published a report titled “What Kind of Internationalization for French Political Science?” The result of several months of research and discussions with the association’s institutional partners, this summary report—prepared by a working group formed within the AFSP—aimed to clarify the terms of the debate, provide a range of information, and, above all, formulate several proposals for action to improve this internationalization.

To build on this report, an initial seminar will be held on Monday, May 6, 2019, at Paris II Panthéon-Assas University.

Three workshops and a roundtable discussion, featuring numerous speakers, will cover all of the topics:

• Workshop 1: Moving Abroad During Your Career
  What opportunities for movingabroad are available at the start of or during your career? How can you prepare for it? How can you make the most of an overseas assignment during your career? How do you return? Political scientists will share their experiences (dissertations abroad, IUE, positions abroad).
• Workshop 2: Publishing in English-Language or Bilingual Journals
  How do you publish internationally? What kind of publication strategy should you adopt? What formatting guidelines should you follow? Presentation by members of the editorial boards of English-language and bilingual journals.
• Workshop 3: Funding and Conducting International Research
  What funding opportunities are available at the international level? What national funding sources are available to support international research? How do you apply? How do you put together a team? How do you prepare your application?
• Roundtable: Internationalization and Careers
  How are institutions and governing bodies addressing the issue of internationalization? What role does it play in recruitment? What institutional initiatives are in place to support this internationalization?
