I am currently recruiting potential supervisees and collaborators at various levels, including:
Undergraduate Students: I frequently post opportunities through ROP. I generally do not take honours thesis students unless you have previously worked with me through ROP or you are proposing a topic closely aligned with my current research interests.
MA and PhD Students: I am always recruiting MA or PhD students through the Department of Political Studies. I encourage you to speak with me about our program by booking a Zoom appointment with me. (Just send me an email to get started.) Our application deadline is generally in mid-to-late January for a September start. You can find more information on our Departmental website. Our PhD program is competitive, and I strongly recommend potential PhD students reach out to me in advance to discuss how our interests overlap and get advice on applying and drafting a proposal. This advice is particularly important for international PhD students.
Postdoctoral Fellows: I am always happy to speak with students interested in doing a postdoc at Queen’s. This can include SSHRC Postdoctoral Fellowships with me. Queen’s also has three institutional postdoctoral fellowships: the Skelton-Clark and Buchanan, and Peacock Postdoctoral Fellowships. I am always happy to speak with potential postdoctoral applicants for the Skelton-Clark or Buchanan Postdoctoral Fellowships, which focus on Canadian politics and democracy, respectively. I am happy to speak to Peacock applicants when the listed field relates to Canadian Politics or Gender & Politics.
I am particularly looking to mentor interested in LGBTQ2S+ politics, especially trans politics. I especially welcome applications from 2SLGBTQIA+ students, along with students from other marginalized groups within the discipline.
