Siba Research Days 2021 announces Call for Papers
Call is open to the Sibelius Academy doctoral students
The annual SibA Research Days, co-organised by the DocMus and MuTri Doctoral Schools of the Sibelius Academy, Uniarts Helsinki, provides a space, where Sibelius Academy students and teachers from various artistic, scientific and applied research disciplines come together to learn from and connect to one another; to discover and examine similarities and differences; to collaborate on problem-solving and shared areas of interest.
We welcome the Sibelius Academy doctoral candidates to participate in the SibA Research Days 2021, which will be held on the 8th and 9th of March 2021 in the Chamber Music Hall in the “R” Building of the Sibelius Academy.
