ISA West is excited about and looking forward to our upcoming conference in Pasadena, CA September 23rd to 24th. We welcome paper, panel and roundtable proposals on any subject related to international studies, broadly defined. Our conference continues its collaboration with ISA sections International ethics and Active Learning in International Affairs, thus we especially welcome papers related to these areas. We are currently accepting submissions and will do so until the submission deadline Tuesday, June 28, 2016. 

ISA-West continues to have paper awards and limited travel grants available to ISA members only. Information regarding travel grants will be sent when the conference program is announced.

This year ISA-West will continue its Emerging Scholars Forum (ESF, funding pending). Senior graduate students and junior faculty are encouraged to apply when submitting paper proposals for the program. Similar to ISA's Junior Scholar Symposium, this is a valuable opportunity to receive in-depth feedback from a senior scholar at a regional conference. 

Additional information about the conference, the Emerging Scholars Forum and to submit proposals, visit the conference website.

We look forward to seeing you in Pasadena!
