Are you an undergraduate student interested in doing hands-on research in political science? The Department of Political Science has launched a new 鈥渓earning by doing鈥� initiative to get students more involved in political science research and learning that is connected with the issues most relevant to you.
On October 17, 2019, six undergraduate students presented the research they did in the summer of 2019 with Professor Sarah Wilson Sokhey to baby直播app, grad students, and undergrads alike. These students鈥擨an Hogg, Brian Iraheta, Kavya Kannan, Cameron Love, 听Kevin Ordonez, and Ayomi Rajapakse鈥攑resented their findings of how authoritarian regimes invest in higher education. Each of these researchers coded roughly 1,000 articles from state-owned news sources about how the government was investing in higher education. The research was funded by the Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program (UROP) at CU and by funds from the 鈥淟earning by Doing鈥� initiative in the Department of Political Science.
Check out the with slides by Professor Sarah Wilson Sokhey and the slides from the students鈥� presentations (Bee Gees & Coding Cobras). Also check out the links to UROP (next applications due February 14, 2020!), PACE funding for CU for undergraduate students to attend conferences and the baby直播app Political Science Review.
