The Seminar is the centerpiece of European Studies. Meeting approximately once a month, the Seminar offers a forum for scholars to hear and debate the latest scholarship on Europe and its impact globally.

Dinner is provided afterwards for anyone who wants to continue the conversation over food and wine. If you wish to join us, please R.S.V.P. to Maria_Vulcheva by the Friday before the Seminar.
