About
CEMUS Research Forum CEFO, organises an interdisciplinary research seminar series to which all doctoral students are welcome. Here you have the chance to meet PhD students from other departments, to present and discuss your research from new perspectives and invite interesting guest speakers.

The seminars give you a chance to get a broader perspective on your research and to think of how your research relates to environmental and development issues. The seminar schedule is planned together with Cefos doctoral students and the seminars are held every fortnight during term time. The first and last seminar each term includes planning discussions where PhD students suggest topics for the seminars, course ideas, field trip ideas and other activities.
