We are happy to have three new exchange PhD candidates visiting the Section for Caucasus Studies, Malmö University, during the academic year 2016/2017. Elnur Aliyev‘s field of research is Dagestani linguistics and Giorgi Omsarashvili is working on modern Islam in the Caucasus (photo: Giorgi Omsarashvili to the left and Elnur Aliyev to the right). 
Agil Valiyev‘s area of interest is cultural diplomacy (photo to the right).
PhD candidate Tina Tskhovrebadze, Tbilisi State University, will spend her third semester in Malmö this fall. 
Wishing all a fruitful research period in Sweden. The exchange visits are funded by the Erasmus Mundus programme.
