The Society for Musicology in Ireland and the Irish National Committee of the International Council for Traditional Music are pleased to announce a joint postgraduate conference to take place at University College Dublin on Friday 20 and Saturday 21 January 2023.

Postgraduate students working in all areas of musical research are warmly invited to submit proposals for 20-minute papers or 30-minute lecture recitals. Poster presentations are also welcome. Areas of research include, but are not limited to, historical musicology, ethnomusicology, music theory and analysis, music technology, music pedagogy, popular music studies, musical practice as research, psychology of music, and music and gender. Master’s students are encouraged to submit proposals for 10-minute papers.

The presentation of the biennial Harry White Doctoral Prize, which was inaugurated in 2020, will take place during the event and, as with previous SMI and ICTM-IE postgraduate conferences, the programme will also include a Careers Forum and a dedicated session featuring prize-winners of the annual CHMHE competition for undergraduate dissertations. The keynote speaker for the 2023 conference shall be announced shortly.

This will be the first campus-based SMI and ICTM-IE postgraduate conference since January 2020. While we have all broadened our technological skillsets and discovered new ways of networking during the pandemic, the committee look forward to welcoming delegates to University College Dublin. The two societies are renowned for their collegiality and participants are asked to attend in-person to take advantage of all the conference has to offer.
