Högre seminarium i kulturgeografi

You are warmly invited to join the ORU Human Geography group’s higher seminar series (högre seminarium)! The program stars both exciting guests, ORU human geographers and everything (or at least something) in between. The seminar is a 2-hour academic seminar, where a presentation of 30-45 minutes is followed by an open discussion.

The seminar is typically on a Wednesday 13.15-15.00, and it takes place in the seminar room F2240 or F2126 in Forumhuset near the Human Geography – unless informed otherwise in the schedule below.
