Summer Semester 2022

Wednesdays, 12.00 – 13.00, FH 804/05

Concept

This semester, several guest researchers are going to visit the Department of Sociology, SMUS and the CRC 1265. The guests are going to introduce themselves and their research to the department in a series of Brown-Bag-Lecture.

Please bring your own lunch – we will be eating while listening to the lecture. Please note that always, the current TU Covid-19-rules for lectures apply. For those who are interested, we will order pizza in advance – if you want to order pizza, please register and order food by two days before the lecture, using the links below and bring 10 Euro on the day of the talk. We will also provide mineral water. If you have missed the deadline, you can still come to the lecture, but you will have to bring your own food and drink.
