PhDs & Pints: Geography of War — Why Do We Keep Fighting?
Where academia meets nightlife.

What drives nations to go to war? Why do some conflicts last for decades while others end quickly? And how much does geography shape the way wars begin, evolve, and end?
Join us for an engaging evening of conversation, drinks, and big ideas at PhDs & Pints, where experts bring fascinating topics out of the classroom and into a relaxed social setting.
This month's discussion features Dr. Anup Desai, who will explore how geography, resources, borders, and human behavior have influenced conflict throughout history—and what these patterns can teach us about today's global hotspots. Whether you're curious about world affairs, history, politics, or simply enjoy thoughtful conversations, this event is designed to be accessible, interactive, and fun.
No lectures. No exams. Just great discussion over drinks.
