Joint Workshop With A Delegation From Aarhus University

21-22 January 2019, University of Bamberg

__ The Bamberg Graduate School of Social Sciences welcomed a delegation of professors and doctoral fellows from the Department of Political Science at Aarhus University in Denmark. In order to stimulate scientific exchange among researchers in similar fields the Graduate School hosted the first Joint Workshop with Aarhus University.

On the first day of the workshop students conducted individual meetings, exchanged research ideas, and expanded their network. On the following day faculty members and doctoral fellows of the Bamberg Graduate School of Social Sciences and the members of the delegation from Aarhus University came together for their first joint workshop. Both the students from Bamberg and from Aarhus had the opportunity to present and discuss their respective research projects, which are all rooted in political science. Topics ranged from interest formation and contestation in the European Parliament to ministerial portfolio allocation, cabinet survival, personalization of politics, negative campaigning and the effects of party funding models. During the discussions, the participants received constructive feedback to their respective projects.

"We see that there are clear overlaps between our institutions in the area of political science already and I see great potential for further cooperation with colleagues from Aarhus" - Prof. Dr. Ulrich Sieberer, Coordinator of Pillar 4: Governance, Institutional Change and Behaviour.
