We are pleased to invite you for the fourth time to the International Multidisciplinary Conference of PhD Students of the University of Szczecin MKDUS 2.0. The Conference will be held on 19-21.06.2024 on the MS Teams platform. Last year’s editions were very popular for Polish and foreign participants.

We believe that this year will be the same, and the interdisciplinary nature of the Conference will be a new experience for you and will allow you to network with people representing different fields of science. This is the only opportunity to exchange your
inspirations.

The conference will be held online through the MS Teams platform. The cost of participation in the Conference without publication is PLN 75, while with publication it is PLN 275. Only publication is also possible, the cost of which is 200 PLN.

Description of the Conference:

This year’s theme will be: Scientific Challenges of Modern Human. Due to the wide range of disciplines included in the green panel, we want to give PhD students space to speak freely and present their research. If you count complex equations, deal with the mysteries of the Earth and the cosmos, or are interested in mechanisms and processes in human or animal organisms, the green panel is just for you.

RED PANEL – 20.06.2024
War and peace – the challenges of modern humanities

Scientific disciplines: philosophy, history, linguistics, literary studies, theological sciences and sciences of culture and religion, pedagogy, psychology.

Dear doctoral students! On the second day of the 4th International Multidisciplinary Conference of Doctoral Students of the University of Szczecin MKDUS 2.0, we invite you to present papers from the fields of philosophy, history, linguistics, literary studies, theological sciences, cultural and religious sciences, pedagogy and psychology.

The theme of this year’s red humanities panel is: War and Peace – Challenges of Modern Humanities. We would like to explore the problem of the world around us, in which the word war appears more often, and the longed-for peace for millions of people in the world is becoming more and more distant.

We are open to all topics related to the above issues. Together we want to create a space to discuss war and peace in a historical, theological or philosophical context, but also to rethink the meaning of these (distant) concepts and the way they are presented in literature and art.

The current global situation poses new challenges to which the humanities cannot remain indifferent. It is high time to focus on pacifist ideas, the collective and generational experience of trauma, notions of post-memory, languages of silence, or relic borders. If you would like to share the results of your research on the challenges of contemporary humanities in the face of other pressing topics facing the contemporary humanities, you are also cordially invited to actively participate in the MKDUS 2.0 conference. We hope that together we will create a place to exchange knowledge and insights on the rapidly changing world.

Speeches can be presented in Polish and English, and the maximum speaking time is 20 minutes.

See you on June 20!

PURPLE PANEL – 21.06.2024
Challenges of social sciences in the 21st century

Scientific disciplines: economics and finance, management and quality studies, social and economic geography and spatial management, political science and public administration, law and psychology.

The issues discussed during the third day of the Conference will concern the challenges of social sciences in the 21st century. During the Purple Panel, listeners will be able to listen to speeches by outstanding experts in selected scientific disciplines who will open the third day of the conference. Then, there will be a session of presentations by PhD students, which will be divided into four panels, according to the topics covered by the speakers. After each panel, a discussion is planned on the issues raised by young researchers. We want to provide PhD students with a space for a lively exchange of ideas and discussion on the effects of scientific research. We care about openness, thematic diversity and the presentation of practical aspects of PhD students’ research
