About Afrisem
The Africa Seminar (AfriSem) provides an interdisciplinary and area-defined setting for graduate students studying Africa to develop, present, and draw advice on papers and research proposals.
It is open to graduate students (and advanced undergraduates by permission) from any discipline, department, or school of Northwestern, at whatever stage of completion of their graduate program. Graduate students are encouraged to participate in AfriSem throughout their graduate years. Student who regularly attend Afrisem are eligible to receive course credit and research funding from the Program of African Studies.
