THE XXIST INTERNATIONAL LIMES (ROMAN FRONTIERS) CONGRESS AT NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE,its in Aug Just to cut it finer
I'm going to that! missed out on the one in Sevilla by a week, but get to do a talk in Newcastle, wahay!
Have you tried contacting the organisers directly? There may be some bursaries left, they have been very helpful to me. It sounds as if you are contemplating a phd or masters, if you have a proposal for what you want to research, try getting a poster together and maybe see if you can get in for a day; a poster would be good experience getting your proposal together in a coherent visual form, and be good to do even if you don't get to go. Say why and what you want to see etc. Do you have someone who can be an academic referee, or professional reference and who knows about your planned research? Can you offer to help out setting up? You may have to pay your own travel and accomodation, but you may be able to get a free day pass to conference if you put your mind to it and demonstrate a valid reason.
Good luck and maybe see you there
