IS-Pubhlth Assistant Leadershp

This independent study offers returning Undergraduate Course Assistants (UCAs) the opportunity to deepen their leadership, communication, and instructional support skills by serving in an advanced, leadership-based UCA role for a Public Health Sciences course. Leadership responsibilities may include mentoring new UCAs, helping to coordinate UCA activities, and supporting the faculty member in the development and facilitation of course materials, assignments, and learning activities.

S- Political Ethnography

What does it mean to study politics from below? How does immersion of the researcher in the research world contribute to the study of power? What are the promises, and perils, of social research that invites the unruly minutiae of lived experience to converse with, and contest, abstract disciplinary theories and categories? In this practice-intensive seminar, we explore ethnographic and other qualitative fieldwork methods with specific attention to their potential to subvert, generate, and extend understandings of politics and power.
