Postgraduate Committee The Postgraduate Committee is a sub-committee of the BSC and comprises research students and academic staff from universities across the UK. The committee meets at the annual BSC conference and the Chair is a member of the BSC Executive Committee. The business of the committee is agreed among all members, co-ordinated by the Chair and Secretary, including recommendations for new members as appropriate and organising the annual conference. Members of the Executive Committee are also kept informed on new developments and suggestions. Prospective members of the Postgraduate Committee can be nominated by themselves or by another member of the committee. As with all sub-committees of the BSC, election is through nomination and then seconding by another member of the committee. Members of any sub-committee must be members of the British Society of Criminology. For the last three years, the Postgraduate Committee has organised its own event prior to the main annual conference. The BSC Postgraduate Conference is an opportunity to discuss work in progress, dilemmas and debates in your ongoing research in a friendly and supportive environment. It also provides a forum for gaining constructive feedback from peers and a chance to engage in what we hope will be lively debate with other post-graduate criminologists. The conference also presents an opportunity to meet a number of established scholars ‘face-to-face’ in an informal setting. Committee members also organise criminology based paper-led sessions, providing post-graduate students with a forum to practice presenting and also to gain feedback on their research. The Postgraduate conference is open to all post graduate students and there are student bursaries available. If you wish to get involved as a member of the Postgraduate Committee or attend the conference, please contact the Chair or Secretary. New!
