The EHS welcomes papers, panels, and roundtables that consider European history from all thematic fields, methodological perspectives, and time periods, including not just research focused exclusively on Europe and its overseas empires, but also research that examines European history from a colonial, comparative, or global perspective. Additionally, we welcome scholarly presentations that thematize or challenge the definition and conceptualization of “Europe” over time. Finally, we welcome submissions on pedagogy and the teaching of European history, including classroom pedagogy, museum and digital pedagogy, archival practices, exhibition curation, and other forms of Public History.
Proposals are welcome from faculty, graduate students, museum professionals and other public historians, historical site stewards, archivists, and independent scholars. The EHS values diversity and the program committee encourages the submission of proposals that reflect diversity and inclusive scholarship with respect to both the composition of panels and topics considered. Those interested are encouraged to reach out to Dr. Elizabeth Propes (epropes@tntech.edu ), the 2026 Program Chair, for any questions about eligibility or the submission process.
Proposals including title, 250-word abstract, and brief c.v. should be submitted via email to Dr. Elizabeth Propes epropes@tntech.edu ; and Dr. Patrick Zander pzander@ggc.edu
PROPOSAL DEADLINE: December 5, 2025
Panelists must be current members of the EHS at the time of the 2026 Conference
