Colloquia

The research colloquia constitute a part of the Dubnow Institute’s teaching program at Leipzig University. In six to eight lectures per semester, invited speakers illuminate a given topic, which is selected for its topical relevance and reflects a focal point of the institute’s research program. The colloquia typically take place in the seminar room at the institute and are directed at students as well as the broader scholarly public. Interested parties are welcome to sit in on the lectures any time, no registration required.
