HESIG Call for Proposals and Call for Proposal Reviewers (October 18, 2018)

HESIG Call for Proposals and Call for Proposal Reviewers 

The 2019 CIES Conference call for proposals is out. The final deadline for all submissions has been extended to today, October 18, 2018. 

The Higher Education SIG (HESIG) serves all of us by promoting and disseminating knowledge about higher education theory, policy, and practice-related issues. The SIG invites comparative researchers, policymakers, practitioners, representatives of local and international organizations, as well as non-governmental organizations to share their higher education research and insights to stimulate our discussions. Our many sessions at the annual conference will articulate current issues and future ideas, and serve as the SIG’s platform for our 2019 Conference meetings and conversations. The program committee will give preference to group panels and individual papers that address this year’s theme, cross disciplinary boundaries, involve researchers from different countries and institutions, and connect academic scholarship with practitioners’ work. We are looking forward to your paper, roundtable, poster, and panel proposals.

Finally, we welcome volunteers for reviewing proposals. With hundreds of proposals to our SIG, we need to support the HESIG program co-chairs in successfully completing the proposal-review tasks.
