Practice your 3-minute “elevator speech” as you participate in a fast-paced, fun event meant to expose you to the excellent research on campus and inspire you to establish new, productive relationships. Researchers will share their topics in an accelerated fashion with a group of researchers sharing similar interests.
Interested attendees must R.S.V.P. to one of the following events. Seats are limited. Some preparation required—an inquiring mind and willingness to talk to others are a must!
Research in Policy Research
Many scholars conduct research in areas to generate information that can influence public policy. But what about the research of policy and policy creation itself? How policy is developed, created and enacted can tell us much about the ways governments and other agencies are able to respond to public need, global crises, and public will. In this speed networking session, we encourage researchers from all areas that encompass the exploration of policy and its impacts. Disciplines may include: the social and behavioral sciences, policy analysis, public and non-profit administration, communications, journalism, psychology, economics, management, philosophy/ethics, and political science.
