Are you a graduate student writing on international relations or security?
Writing a thesis on international relations and security is a timely, challenging, yet rewarding endeavor. Whether you are exploring nuclear weapons, geopolitical tensions, great power rivalry, conflict resolution, international security, territorial disputes, emerging technologies, or institutions like NATO, your research has the potential to shape discussions in both academia and policy alike. To support graduate students (both MA and PhD) in refining their work, the Oslo Nuclear Project invites you to participate in a specialized writing workshop designed to enhance your research through expert feedback and peer discussion.
