Promoting sociology in Australia
Facilitating sociology teaching and research
Enhancing the professional development of TASA members
TASA Annual Conference is the major academic activity each year. It is usually held in late November / early December and is hosted by a university, with support from the TASA Executive and a Professional Conference Organiser. The Conference features keynote speakers, concurrent sessions, a trade display and social events, and provides opportunities for networking with colleagues from Australia and overseas. The conferences are large enough to showcase a broad cross-section of cutting-edge Australian research, and small enough to remain friendly and accessible. Student participation is encouraged through reduced fees and scholarships. Full details about the scholarships can be viewed here.
Please note: TASA reciprocal agreements allow TASA members to attend conferences of the American Sociological Association, the British Sociological Association, the Sociological Association of Aotearoa of New Zealand, and the Sociological Association of Ireland at discounted rates.
