*To be held at the USC Korean Studies Institute, University of Southern
California Proposals and application for discussants due Friday, October 5,
2018 *The USC Korean Studies Institute is pleased to announce the seventh
annual graduate student symposium and invite paper and discussant
proposals. The symposium aims to professionalize graduate students, nurture
their scholarship, and create interdisciplinary networks of Ph.D.
students working on research related to Korea, East Asia, and/or Asian
diasporas. The symposium provides students from various institutions with
the chance to meet and share research in progress with their peers and
participating faculty. In addition, participants will engage in workshops
that will build their professional and research skills.

Graduate students from any department and any university, especially in
California, are encouraged to submit paper proposals or serve as
discussants. We hope to achieve an interdisciplinary mix of research papers
from both the social sciences and humanities. Particularly encouraged are
research papers that include Korea in a larger comparative or theoretical
framework.
