Get Involved

Join us for our first spring meeting on Friday, January 31st from 12 – 1 pm (Sloan 3rd Floor Conference Room). We will be discussing the proposed graduate certificate and next steps in the submission and review process. We hope graduate students will attend to provide their input on the proposed graduate certificate. Plus, we will have an exciting announcement for our CHIP faculty affiliates.

Dr. Stephanie Moller (UNC-Charlotte) will be presenting at the Sociology Colloquium and we’re invited to attend. Her talk will examine whether state power resources and policies provide potential buffers from industrial employment shifts (from manufacturing to post-industrial employment). More specifically, through analysis of U.S. county and state data between 1970 and 2010, this research examines whether the longitudinal associations between industrial employment sector size and median income across counties are moderated by the power resources and policies in states. 

Graduate student affiliates who will be presenting at a spring conference will be give a practice talk at this month’s meeting held on Friday, March 20th from 12 – 1 pm (Location TBA). If you would like to give a practice presentation, please email Dr. Walsemann so she can plan accordingly. 

Join us for our final fall meeting on Friday, December 6th from 10 – 11 am (Hamilton Room 321). We will be providing feedback on three doctoral student affiliates’ grant and fellowship applications.

Join us for our second fall meeting on Friday, November 1st from 12 noon – 1 pm in (Sloan 3rd floor conference room). Dr. Stephanie Urena will talk about her work on aging U.S. veterans as well as future research directions.
