Immigration Working Group

Adolescent Social Development Working Group

Working Groups

As a vehicle to bring together PRI affiliates and associates from across our many departments and colleges in order to promote intellectual dialogue and to generate new interdisciplinary research initiatives, PRI sponsors working groups. Working groups consist of sub-groups of PRI faculty sharing a common substantive interest who convene regularly to assess the state and trajectory of new science within a specialty area of demographic research, provide a venue for critical peer reaction to ongoing or planned work among working group members, and to create an academic setting that sparks creative ideas and catalyzes the development of collaborative and multidisciplinary research projects.

Current Working Groups

• Adolescence and Young Adulthood, headed by Derek Kreager
• Immigration, headed by Jennifer van Hook
• Sociology of Education, headed by Katerina Bodovski

New Working Groups

Those with ideas for new working groups should contact either Nancy Landale or Rukmalie Jayakody. They will work with you to explore and develop your idea and identify faculty who may be interested.
