Pre-conference seminar on PhD research in music therapy

To foster dialogue among PhD students in music therapy within Europe, Viennese PhD students are excited to organise and host a day of meeting, exchanging, and learning from each other at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna (mdw) just before the start of EMTC2016. It will be interesting to hear about all the different topics and approaches of current doctoral research across Europe.

Time & location: Monday, July 04, 2016 | 9am – 6pm | University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna, Austria

Participants: All PhD students currently engaged in music therapy research within Europe and beyond are invited to participate.

Participation fee: EUR 25.00 (including refreshments & lunch), to be paid on-site, in cash.

Preliminary schedule: The seminar will provide an opportunity for networking and learning by sharing and discussing different models and contents of PhD programmes across Europe. Participants are invited to present and discuss their doctoral research in oral presentations (20 min talk + 10 min discussion).

(It is also possible to participate in the seminar without actively presenting.)

Please sign up for this seminar when registering for the 10th European Music Therapy Conference online at www.emtc2016.at/#registration (available from November 2015).

Please note: PhD students willing to present their work are asked to send an abstract (200-300 words) to Viennese PhD student Leslie Schrage-Leitner: Schrage-Leitner@mdw.ac.at by March 01, 2016.
