<p class="MsoNormal">The <a href="https://cshe.berkeley.edu/" target="_blank">Center for Studies in Higher Education (CSHE)</a> at UC Berkeley invites doctoral students from all UC campuses who are conducting research on higher education to apply for the <a href="https://cshe.berkeley.edu/seminars/gardner-seminar" target="_blank">David
P. Gardner Seminar</a>.<br>
<br>
Named after UC President Emeritus <a href="https://cshe.berkeley.edu/david-pierpont-gardner" target="_blank">David P. Gardner</a>, CSHE sponsors the annual Gardner Seminar for doctoral students who are conducting dissertation research related to higher education.
In 2020 the seminar was expanded beyond UC Berkeley to include diverse doctoral students from other UC campuses. In the 2021- 2022 academic year, the seminar will meet remotely and will continue to be open to doctoral students from across the UC system.<br>
<br>
The Gardner Seminar builds a community of early-career researchers in higher education within the UC system. The ten selected fellows represent a range of disciplines and are given the opportunity to present their dissertation research and have it reviewed
by their peers, thereby broadening their understanding of different research tools and methodologies. Additionally, research scholars and academic leaders are invited to make presentations at the seminar on key higher education topics in California, the nation
and the world.<br>
<br>
Past speakers have included <a href="https://www2.calstate.edu/csu-system/chancellor/Pages/meet-the-chancellor.aspx" target="_blank">John A. Pérez</a>, Chairman, UC Board of Regent, former Under Secretary for Education <a href="https://www.edexcelencia.org/people/martha-kanter" target="_blank">Martha
