RESEARCH ACADEMY
PRESENTATION
A community for public ideas
Why?
The Research Academy is a research community-based project designed to foster better learning and research experiences among the postgraduates (MSc and PhD students) in Law.
The organization of doctoral studies varies considerably among different disciplines, but the available benchmarks for Law portray a fairly conservative configuration of seminars and traditional supervision. The Research Academy hereby proposed embodies an innovative model and an attempt to overcome the culture of individuality and scarcity of outreach activities by offering further methodological leverages and transferable skills that can amplify the whole scholar experience.
How?
The work plan for 2022-2023 includes modules in Research Methods and Research Seminars. Modules will be facilitated by an external/LPL consultant or academic. who can bring additional experience, as well as share best research practices from other areas of knowledge.
Each module is self-contained, but overall attendance would provide a comprehensive overview for research development.
Logic & Law modules are part of the ALF project – “Advancing cooperation on the foundations of law”, funded by the European Commission through Grant agreement n. 101079177.
Where?
The sessions will take place at the University of Lisbon, School of Law, Arbitration Room 1; and online (only for "Law & Logic" modules) via Zoom, thus facilitating the remote participation of students and researchers.
All materials will be made available to participants through an online digital repository.
When?

The sessions will occur after work hours every Tuesday, from 6:00 p.m. to 9:10 p.m.
