Research scholars and early-career academics within the Department of English and Cultural Studies often work in relative isolation, with limited structured opportunities to present ongoing research to an audience beyond their immediate supervisors or advisory committees. This can create gaps in their ability to defend arguments under open questioning, engage with interdisciplinary perspectives, and benchmark their progress against peers working in allied areas of literature, cultural theory, and media studies. There is therefore a growing need to strengthen a collaborative research culture within the department, as isolated research efforts can miss opportunities for cross-pollination of ideas. The CHRIST Language & Arts Network (CLAN) is well positioned to provide such a platform. A dedicated Research Colloquium addresses these needs by creating a supportive forum where scholars can practise academic presentation, receive constructive feedback, and engage with a wider faculty and...
