DEADLINE EXTENDED: Intersectional Qualitative Research Methods Institutes in June 2019 for URM early career faculty and advanced doctoral students

DEADLINE EXTENDED: Friday, November 14, 2018

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, December 14, 2018 at midnight (CST).

The Consortium on Race, Gender, and Ethnicity and the Latino Research Initiative are deeply engaged in advancing the next generation of underrepresented minority scholars. We are committed to building pathways to successful research careers. Join us in this effort by identifying early career faculty and advanced doctoral students in social and behavioral sciences to participate in a critical week-long training institute:

Intersectional Qualitative Research Methods Institute for Early Career Faculty (IQRMI-ECF) at the University of Maryland College Park (June 2-7, 2019) focuses on methodological skills, writing for publication, and navigating the academic environment to ensure retention, tenure, and promotion. Apply here.

Intersectional Qualitative Research Methods Institute for Advanced Doctoral Students(IQRMI-ADS) at The University of Texas at Austin (June 23-28, 2019) 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.Apply here.

The application deadline is Friday, December 14, 2018.

Scholars who are Mexican American, African American, Native American, Puerto Rican, or from other socially and economically disadvantaged groups are encouraged to apply. The Institutes are designed to provide an equity lift to navigate successfully the next critical transition in the applicant’s academic/research career pathway. Institute objectives are to enhance qualitative intersectional research skills, writing skills and scholarly practices, and to create a network of intersectional scholars. We intend to strengthen the intellectual and social capital of these participants through tailored professional development.

We need your help in spreading the word to prospective participants.

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

We are very grateful for your assistance in helping us build and strengthen pathways to successful research careers for underrepresented minorities through participation in these institutes.
