The department’s Political Science Workshops, which intend to bring energetic scholars engaged in substantively interesting and methodologically varied projects in the fields of comparative politics, American politics, political theory and international politics to a Penn audience, are ready to begin for the new academic year.
Below is a tentative announcement of the upcoming workshops for the upcoming year. Please consult the individual event listings on the department website calendar for changes as the workshops near.
Workshops are typically held in the Silverstein Forum at Stiteler Hall, and lunch or refreshments are served.
