Research in International Politics
Derby Hall room 2130 (Spencer room)
Faculty Director:
Randall Schweller
Graduate Student Coordinators:
Seth Goldstein
and Dane Imerman
This forum serves as a venue for the presentation and discussion of international relations research primarily (though not exclusively) by graduate students and faculty of Ohio State's Department of political science. Approximately five times each quarter, speakers present on a topic and engage in a spirited dialogue with the participating audience. The program is meant to showcase research in IR at Ohio State as well as provide students with experience making extended presentations in a friendly yet critical professional environment. All topics, ontologies and methodologies are welcome.
As a brownbag lunch program, all are welcome to bring lunch to the sessions. Some refreshments are provided. Papers can be downloaded from the RIP website. Check back here for the date and location of future RIP workshops.
