  Graduate Humanities Forum

Since the year 2000, the Penn Humanities Forum has sponsored a research forum for Penn doctoral students in the humanities and social sciences. The Graduate Humanities Forum (GHF) offers doctoral students the opportunity to explore the trends and challenges of interdisciplinary research.

Students meet with faculty, organize roundtable discussions and colloquia of general interest, and convene an annual international scholarly conference on the Forum's theme. Conference calls for papers are announced in late Fall of each academic year and are open to doctoral humanists from peer institutions in the U.S. and abroad.

Among GHF's other academic interests are outreach within the Penn community and mentoring of PHF Undergraduate Humanities Forum Fellows.

If you are interested in joining the Graduate Humanities Forum, please contact Jennifer Conway, Associate Director, Penn Humanities Forum.
