Summer Schools

SASP financially supports selected postgraduate students to attend a variety of Summer Schools by assisting with associated fees, registration, and expenses. Applications have previously involved submitting an application form, one reference to the SASP committee, and being a SASP member. Details about summer schools and sponsorship opportunities are shared to the SASP mailing list.

Below are details of a variety of Summer Schools and related arrangements.


The Society for Australasian Social Psychology (SASP) Summer School

Every second year, SASP organises a Summer School for postgraduate students who are members of SASP.  It is a fantastic opportunity for postgraduate students from Australasia and overseas to further their knowledge and experience in social psychology and to establish strong networks with academics and postgraduate students in the area.
