Open Applications: Science Fiction Foundation’s Masterclass (Due 24 April)

JOIN US AT THE ELEVENTH SCIENCE FICTION FOUNDATION MASTERCLASS IN SCIENCE FICTION CRITICISM!

FRIDAY 30 JUNE TO SUNDAY 2 JULY 2017

Nick Hubble (Brunel University)

Price: £225; £175 for registered postgraduate students.

The Masterclass is a three day event at which students from a wide range of backgrounds discuss texts with three class leaders. Past Masterclasses have proved extremely valuable to postgraduate students, both as means of honing their craft, and as a networking opportunity. The fee for registered postgraduate students is £175 for all three days (the Masterclass is non-residential).

To apply please send a short (no more than 3,000 words) piece of critical writing (a blog entry, review, essay, or other piece), and a one page curriculum vitae, to masterclass@sf-foundation.org. Applications received by 24 April 2017 will be considered by an Applications Committee. Applications received after 24 April may be considered if places are still available, on a strictly first-come first served basis.

Past Masterclasses students are encouraged to apply again (though we will prioritise applications from those who have not been previous students).
