Training graduate students in political
science research is the most important and, frankly, most rewarding part
of my responsibilities as a university professor. Here, I present brief bios on my past and present students.
If you are considering UCSD for graduate study, I
encourage you to look at the range of topics these students have selected
for their dissertations, their placements, and their publications.
Although I have not cleared this invitation with them, I am sure they
would be pleased to receive inquiries from you about UCSD, my commitment
to graduate education, or my style as a dissertation advisor.
