Dear SCRA members,
We are currently accepting applications for the Ph.D.
program in Civil Society & Community Research (CSCR) in the School of Human
Ecology at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. The philosophy of the School of
Human Ecology is that human development and well-being are promoted through the
interactions between people and the ecological settings (organizations, social
networks, communities) of which they are a part.
The CSCR program offers opportunities to conduct research
in community settings, often in collaboration with community organizations or
coalitions, and to become participant-scholars in change processes. Current
students are involved in action research projects related to promoting positive
youth development, civic engagement, health equity, primary prevention,
youth-adult partnership, community organizing, and systems change. The CSCR
program supports students to build expertise in mixed-methods research design
that draws on theory from multiple disciplines. The University of
Wisconsin–Madison is a dynamic research environment with leading graduate
programs across the social sciences. It is also the state's land grant
institution, and our faculty and students often conduct work in collaboration
with the University of Wisconsin–Extension, offering additional opportunities
for community-based research and outreach.
We are able to provide financial support for graduate
studies through research and teaching assistantships that provide tuition
remission and a stipend.
Applications must be received by: January 3rd, 2014 For
additional information, please visit: http://www.sohe.wisc.edu/is/is-graduate-overview-of-degrees.htm
For questions related to the application process, please
contact Liv Lindenberg [llindenberg@wisc.edu] For questions about the program,
please feel free to contact me or other Human Ecology faculty.
