DEADLINE EXTENSION: Intersectional Qualitative Research Methods

DEADLINE EXTENSION

Dear Colleagues:

We extended the application deadline for these two programs that advance the mission of inclusion of underrepresented minority doctoral students and early career faculty in the fields of behavioral and social sciences and education. Applications are due on Friday, March 16, 2018 at midnight (CST).

The Consortium on Race, Gender, and Ethnicity at the University of Maryland and the Latino Research Initiative at The University of Texas at Austin seek participants for the following two programs:

1. Intersectional Qualitative Research Methods Institute for Early Career Faculty (IQRMI-ECF) focuses on methodological skills, writing for publication, and navigating the academic environment to ensure retention, tenure, and promotion.
2. Intersectional Qualitative Research Methods Institute for Advanced Doctoral Students (IQRMI-ADS) focuses on completion of a doctoral degree, navigating the job market, postdoctoral fellowship applications, and writing for publications in preparation for a successful research career.

Please spread the word to prospective participants. Institute goals are to provide early career faculty and advanced doctoral students with practical experience to enhance qualitative intersectional research skills, writing skills and scholarly practices, and to create a network of intersectional scholars. 

They are now accepting applications:

• IQRMI-ECF at the University of Maryland will take place June 3-8, 2018. Apply here.
• IQRMI-ADS at The University of Texas at Austin will take place June 24-29, 2018. Apply here.

Please share the attached flyers about these institutes far and wide to your doctoral students, colleagues, listservs, and networks.

We appreciate your assistance in helping to build and strengthen pathways to successful research careers for Latinos and other underrepresented minorities through

participation in these institutes.
