    Call for Participants:

    2024 Research Methods Division-CARMA Doctoral Student and Junior Faculty Consortium

    This is a call for participants for the 2024 Research Methods Division-CARMA Doctoral Student and Junior Faculty Consortium. The consortium offers a virtual, real-time, and interactive opportunity designed for participants to engage with leading scholars and methodologists across three perspectives: macro-quantitative, micro-quantitative, and qualitative.

    This year, we are excited to introduce a revised session format that offers more targeted and interactive learning experiences. Specifically, participants will have the opportunity to engage deeply with specialized methodological areas through two interactive breakout sessions. These sessions are designed to provide hands-on experiences and stimulate discussion on specific research methods, guided by expert methodologists. For each breakout session, participants will select and join two methods topics they are interested in, enabling them to explore a diverse range of methodologies and enhance their skills effectively.

    Schedule of Online Sessions (All times in EST)

    ·       Wednesday, June 5, 11 am-12:30 pm: Introduction to the Consortium and designing and managing your dissertation or large research project.

    ·       Wednesday, June 12, 11 am-12:30 pm: Breakout groups with method specialists, each led by a notable expert in the field.

    ·       Wednesday, June 19, 11 am-12:30 pm: Second set of breakout groups with method specialists.

    ·       Wednesday, June 26, 11 am-12:30 pm: Clearing methodological hurdles in the publication process: Ask the editors.

    Key Benefits

    1.     Expert Interaction: Direct engagement with leading scholars and methodologists, gaining valuable insights and feedback.
