FASR Archaeological Student Conference
The Forum for Archaeological Student Research in Copenhagen is a one-day conference during which UCPH students are invited to present their past work or current research to their peers and which is intended to promote dialogue and collaboration across the branches of archaeology and related fields.
The conference is a collaboration between the student associations of Prehistoric and Classical Archaeology (The Saxo Institute), student representatives from Near-Eastern Archaeology (Department of Cross-Cultural and Regional Studies), and the UCPH School of Archaeology.
The organizers, presenters, volunteers and chairs are all current students or recent graduates, making the conference completely student-based. The keynote is presented by a PhD student from the UCPH School of Archaeology. Presentations will be in both English and Danish with the title indicating the language of the given presentation.
