Conferences and Events of the Department of History

30minút, 13sekúnd

The Department of History organizes various scientific and popularizing activities. A number of several scientific conferences and workshops are held by the Department annually as a result of its research projects and cooperation with other institutions. Besides them the published pieces of our work are often presented to public. Moreover, organization of the Meeting of Young Historians, at which doctoral students from both Slovakia and neighbouring countries introduce their work in a discussion with other historians, has become an annual tradition in Košice. During semester the students have the opportunity to attend guest lectures of experts from Slovakia and from abroad. The most active students present their papers at the Students Scientific Conference.

Many events, nevertheless, are intended for broad general public interested in history. In the years 2013 – 2016, thus, in cooperation with National Memory Institute, the Department realized numerous Discussion Evenings focused on diversified political and social themes of history of Slovakia in the 20th century. Currently our staff together with our active students organizes additional events for the students and public, such as workshops, expositions and excursions. These events help in disserminating and communicating our research results, as well as in showing historical connotations of the contemporary social issues. For more actualities of our Department see Facebook.
