The Department of Psychology and the Centre for Social Issues Research at the University of Limerick, Ireland, are organizing the next EASP Summer School from the 6th to the 19th of August 2012.

Description and History of the EASP Summer Schools

The Summer Schools of the European Association of Social Psychology have a long tradition dating back to 1967, and are currently run on a two-year basis. The EASP Summer School is a key activity of the Association, providing an excellent opportunity for junior researchers to interact and develop research projects in collaboration with senior researchers and colleagues from across Europe and elsewhere. The summer school runs for 2 weeks, providing a setting for interactive small group teaching and discussions, within 5 different workshops. Over the years, the EASP Summer Schools gained the worthy reputation of being the origin of long lasting, creative and valuable networks of academics in the field of social psychology.
