Since 2013, the European Consortium of Sociological Research (ECSR), the Collegio Carlo Alberto and the Universities of Milan and Turin, within the frame of NASP, have organized a yearly Spring School for doctoral students and young researchers.
The School, which is hosted by the Collegio Carlo Alberto (Turin), provides high-quality training on various topics related to sociology, especially focusing on theory-driven empirical research on social inequalities, giving the opportunity to students to participate in a five-day, full-immersion course, including conceptual and methodological lectures, and to present their work and have it discussed by leading scholars in the field.
