SUBMISSIONS FOR RESEARCH WORKSHOP
COMPUTATIONAL TEXT ANALYSIS IN PARTY RESEARCH
Abstract submissions are invited for the workshop on September 25-26, 2025 organised by the fellow BAGSS members Dr Viktoriia Muliavka and David Beck. This event aims to bring together scholars working at the intersection of political science and computational text analysis in party research. Submissions are invited from PhD students as well as experienced researchers, who engage with political representation, party competition, intraparty dynamics, political discourse, or similar areas using computational tools for text analysis (ranging from dictionary-based methods to machine-learning approaches).

EVENT REVIEW
RESEARCH EXHIBITION
IN ESSENCE. PERSONALITIES OF RESEARCH
The Graduate School wants to provide a framework for research realization and furthermore aims to promote the works and the researchers themselves. To showcase their work, we developed the concept of a research exhibition where the individually designed research portfolios are featured next to the portraits. The exhibition was successfully on display three times and is now availiable online.
