Dear Professor Brookes,<br>
<br>
We write to you in your capacity as Director of Graduate Studies to
introduce an initiative to foster a new generation of methodologists
in the Qualitative and Multi-Method Research community, and to ask
your help recruiting participants.<br>
<br>
With generous support from the National Science Foundation, we will
organize a small <b>“Emerging Methodologists Workshop”</b> at the upcoming
meeting of the American Political Science Association (APSA) in Los
Angeles in August 2023 (as well as in 2024 and 2025). The workshop
will run as an invitation-only short course sponsored by the
Qualitative and Multi-Method Research (QMMR) section of APSA. We are
actively seeking to recruit advanced <b>graduate students</b>, <b>postdocs</b>,
and <b>junior faculty</b> from <b>under-represented groups</b> who are <b>interested
in developing and publishing new methodological scholarship</b> in these
areas to present their work at the workshop.<br>
<br>
Workshop funding will cover, for each presenter, <b>round-trip airfare</b>,
<b>two nights at a conference hotel</b>, <b>meals and refreshments</b> during the
workshop, and the $25 workshop fee. In addition, each presenter will
be <b>paired with a mentor</b> who will help them to develop their
methodological scholarship in advance of the workshop, and will
continue to work with them after the workshop <b>to prepare their
research for submission to a peer-reviewed journal.</b><br>
<br>
Proposals to present at the workshop are due on <font color="#0000ff"><b>March 6, 2023</b></font>.<br>
<br>
<font color="#0000ff"><b>Please see the attached document</b></font>
for more information and instructions for proposal submission. Broad
outreach is a vital part of our efforts to recruit <b>a diverse pool of
participants</b>, and we therefore ask you to circulate the call widely
to any individuals or groups who might be interested. Please email <a href="mailto:emw.qmer@gmail.com" target="_blank">emw.qmer@gmail.com</a> with any
questions.<br>
<br>
Thank you in advance for your support of this initiative.<br>
<br>
Best wishes,<br>
Diana Kapiszewski and Hillel Soifer <br>
