Economic History Advisory Board
The Department has established an Economic History Advisory Board to assist in promoting the Department and its activities, including events, resource development and supporting research initiatives. Find out more about the work and people behind the Advisory Board on the page below.
Details of events sponsored by EHAB, including recordings, can be found here.
We'd love to get the book club going again. If you would be interested in taking a lead, please contact Tracy Keefe: t.j.keefe@lse.ac.uk
Thanks to generous donations from alumni and friends, in particular Breht Feigh (MSc Economic History, 1993), the Department is able to offer short-term research contracts as part of the Student Internship Programme. Working closely with faculty, students participate in a range of research activities which allow them to hone their skills whilst contributing to ongoing research projects in the Department.
Details of faculty projects that have been accessed by students under this scheme can be found here.
A significant focus of the Advisory Board will be to assist in the foundation and ongoing stewardship of the Economic History Research Fund, which will provide grants for research for PhD students in the Department.
Please contact Professor Max Schulze (m.s.schulze@lse.ac.uk) or Dr. Peter Cirenza (p.t.cirenza@lse.ac.uk) if you would like to find out more about the Advisory Board and its activities.
