Graduate Advising
|
I work with graduate students who are thinking with abolition geographies, transnational migrations and/or environmental justice. Prospective graduate students should have at least two years relevant experience – for example, organizing for climate justice, working as an administrative assistant in an immigration law firm, or personal experience with migration. Prospective graduate students should have demonstrated capabilities to collaborate with the communities where they plan to conduct research, including language proficiencies as appropriate to fieldwork. |
UW Geography is a PhD-oriented program, so we either admit students as MA with six years of funding (2+4 years for MA+PhD) or as post-MA students (4 years of funding). If you are planning to apply to the Geography MA/PhD and I might be a potential committee member, you should write me an email before you apply that briefly explains: a possible research project you'd like to work on, why you are qualified to do so, and what research/theoretical perspectives we might share (you don't need to read my articles and cite them in your email, I promise!). If you start your email subject line with "Prospective student: ...", it will help me keep track of your message. Thank you!
