PhD workshop

Young researchers and PhD students in the beginning of their academic career are invited for a special workshop on how to get published in peer reviewed journals. The workshop will be chaired by Prof. Emeritus, Russell Lansbury and will feature a number of editors from prominent journals in the field of industrial relations and Human Resource Management. Editors will give presentations on the art of getting published from their specific editorial stance and participants will therefore get first-hand guidance on how to present their material and how to avoid typical pitfalls when writing. If you wish to participate in the workshop, please register by e-mail to acs@faos.dk. Registration should include note on career status (PhD in progress or recently finished). Read more
