ARChive: Academic Research & Communication Hive

IAPSS, the International Association for Political Science Students, is proud to present project ARChive: Academic Research & Communication Hive. ARChive aims to teach and sharpen the soft and hard skills of political science students and early career researchers through a series of interactive Masterclasses from October 2023 to February 2024. The ARChive Masterclasses, a collaboration between the Academic & Programs Departments of IAPSS, are an excellent way to share knowledge and expertise with the political science community and help individuals improve their skills in the fields of research, writing, communication, and presentation.

All ARChive Masterclasses take place on Sunday and are free to attend. Attendees can receive a certificate upon request. A number of Masterclasses will be recorded and will be made available to IAPSS members through the IAPSS website.

For questions on ARChive: Academic Research & Communication Hive, please email Harshul Singh, Head of the Academic Department at academic@iapss.org.
