Present and/or publish your work to a broader audience

Political science faculty meet annually at the Palmer House in Chicago to present their current research at the Midwest Political Science Association's Annual Conference. For several years, the organizers have included a poster session for undergraduate research and several ND students have presented in the past few years. If you are interested, see the following blurb extracted from a recent email:


"Finally, I wanted to remind you that several years ago, the MPSA created a Poster Section for Undergraduate Research. This is a great opportunity for advanced undergraduate students to present a capstone project and get an understanding of academic research if they are considering graduate school. If you have any undergraduate students that might be interested, please forward them information on this (www.mpsanet.org) The deadline is December 3, 2010."


Additionally, I was recently contacted Columbia University’s Journal of Politics & Society, aundergraduate academic journal distributed in outlets like Barnes & Noble and Borders. I was specifically asked to nominate papers from my junior seminar on financial crises but also other undergraduate research of note such as seminar papers and senior theses. If you are interested, please let me know (Guisinger.1@nd.edu). The deadline is January 15th; papers must be a minimum of 15 pages. To find out more, you can also go to www.helvidius.org.


Best,


Professor Guisinger
