READ IN APP

The Young Scholars Initiative (YSI), in collaboration with the Economic and Business History Society (EBHS), will hold a doctoral workshop for around 6 doctoral students on Wednesday, May 28, in Birmingham, AL, USA. The aim of this one-day workshop is to support the career and research development as well as networking of new scholars in the fields of economic and business history, broadly conceived. The workshop will include paper development presentations by doctoral students, followed by feedback and discussion with the leadership of the EBHS, as well as mentorship panels on academic publishing, the academic job-market, and career development in economic and business history.

If selected for participation, doctoral students will receive:

$150 of financial support for travel to and from Birmingham, AL;
2 nights of accommodation for the evenings of May 27 and May 28; and
automatic paper acceptance for the EBHS conference (those already accepted to present at EBHS are also encouraged to apply).

The workshop is open to applications from doctoral students across the world undertaking a PhD in the fields of economic and business history, broadly conceived. This includes research in management, financial, labor, legal, and social history, including the history of capitalism and economic thought. The EBHS is committed to diversity and inclusion, and we especially encourage applications from doctoral students from underrepresented groups.

Applications should be received no later than Friday, April 11, 2025. Applications will be considered by the YSI organizers and leadership of the EBHS. If you have already submitted an abstract for the EBHS Conference in Birmingham you may still apply for this doctoral workshop and are encouraged to do so. Please note that if you attended the YSI-EBHS doctoral workshops in York in June 2024, Porto in May 2023, or Salt Lake City in May 2022, you are eligible to apply for the 2025 workshop.
