ArcHum Research Seminar Autumn 2026
The ArcHum Research Seminar is a meeting place for Arctic humanities. The seminar aims to make visible the breadth and quality of the research taking place at UiT, and to give colleagues across departments, faculties and campuses a regular opportunity to meet.
The humanities at UiT are spread across many departments and campuses, and the research communities often have limited insight into each other’s work. The research seminar is intended as a meeting place. The aim is to build relationships from the bottom up, strengthen the interdisciplinary community, and make it easier to discover overlapping interests across disciplines.
Tee coffe, fruits and bruschetta served.
Can't join in-person? No worries, we also have a livestream. The recordings will be accassible for two years.
