The application form for the next autumn school of the Finnish Doctoral Network for Music Research is now open online. This year, the autumn school will be taking place from September 29 until October 1, 2020 at Kallio-Kuninkala. For the application form link, instructions, and further information, please contact the coordinator (nuppu.koivisto@uniarts.fi, tel. 0504779213).

The deadline for this first round of applications is May 15th, 2020, after which the applications will be sent to the professors of each partner university, and subsequently ranked by them. Their proposed lists will be used to compile the group of attendees. We will inform all applicants of the decisions by the end of May.

Due to the exceptional global circumstances this spring, the visiting experts of the autumn school will be confirmed later on during the summer. The visitors' lectures/workshops will continue the policy of the previous years: they will touch upon questions that are shared by doctoral students of different areas of music research. 

The following costs of accepted presenting participants will be covered: traveling, meals, and accommodation during the event. Accommodation facilities in Kallio-Kuninkala are double or triple rooms.

The committee of the Doctoral Network will be following closely all instructions by the Finnish authorities and WHO regarding the COVID-19 situation. The autumn school will be taking place if current restrictions on assemblies are removed and if governmental guidelines allow it.
