PhD Seminar on CSR
Researchers, PhD candidates and prominent professors are invited to jointly discuss their respective research projects. The common point between all topics discussed is Corporate Social responsibility (CSR). CSR-related issues will be considered according to various disciplines (including but not limited to management, law, sociology, philosophy, economics, political science, and social psychology).
The CSR research seminar is a great opportunity for doctoral students and young researchers to present and discuss their research project, as well as receive feedback and advice from leading academics and practitioners.

Research themes
The general theme of the research seminar is Corporate Social Responsibility. We aim at bringing together scholars from various disciplines and fields, sharing a common interest for CSR and business & society issues, in order to explore the diverse dimensions of these questions.
Special attention will also be given to research projects that involve strong linkages with industry participants. It may include methods such as ethnography, observation-participation, or other methodologies that require intense relationship with companies although all PhD topics and approaches are welcome.
