The Economic History Society explores how economic history shapes our world today. We host speaker events, academic panels, career events, and social gatherings. Come join our community!
The Economic History Society is an academic society dedicated to building community among students interested in economic history. We run social events, seminars, and career opportunities to help you connect with like-minded peers and explore the field. In the past, we have hosted pub quizzes, documentary screenings with filmmakers, lectures, debates, and professional development events. We also founded the now independent Knowles Review of Economic History, a student-run peer-reviewed journal published by Houghton Street Press, where you can submit your work for professional publication.
Membership costs £4 and grants you access to all society events, including speaker events, social events, career and networking sessions, and academic panels. These events provide excellent opportunities to meet other members and deepen your understanding of economic history.
We've set up a WhatsApp group if you want to ask questions, will also send any events to it including details of freshers' zooms/events.
Alongside this, we will be posting updates on future events on our Instagram, as listed below!
Although now independent of the society, you should give the Knowles Review a follow.
