Graduate Training
In order to involve Law School faculty with graduate social science education and to enhance collaborative research, each year CERL names a number of Graduate Student Associates (GSAs). The GSAs are provided office space in the Law School with the necessary computing equipment and statistical software for their research. GSAs participate fully in the intellectual life of the Center, and are provided a modest research stipend to be used for any reasonable research expense including conference travel. They are also encouraged with collaborate with Law School faculty with common interests on empirical projects.
Currently all CERL GSAs are Ph.D. students in the Political Science department in Washington University's Graduate School of Arts & Sciences. The Washington University Political Science department has a long tradition of training graduate students for academic careers in American and comparative judicial politics, as well as political methodology (i.e., applied statistical methods). CERL GSAs not only receive outstanding disciplinary training, but also regularly communicate and collaborate with faculty from the law school. To learn more about doctoral studies in political science at Washington University, please visit the Political Science department website. Students interested in pursuing joint J.D. / Ph.D. training in empirical legal research in the disciplines of Political Science, Economics, or Pscychology should contact the CERL Director ( email ) for more information. |
