The Education and Inequality Workshop supports the development of research related to both education and social stratification at Penn. Penn has an active, interdisciplinary, and cross-school group of faculty members and students working on related topics, with scholarship spanning areas of race, class, ethnicity, gender, qualitative and quantitative methods, and US and international contexts.
With support from the Department of Sociology and the Population Studies Center, the Education and Inequality Workshop sponsors four activities: 1) works-in-progress meetings to support the development of proposals, journal submissions, and conference and job talks; 2) cluster workshops by internal or external speakers; 3) an annual mini-conference, training, or symposium; and 4) a working paper series in which workshop participants can share working papers or preprints.
We convene E&I Works-in-Progress (WIP) Meetings and E&I Cluster Workshops, and we sponsor or co-sponsor other events related to our cluster theme. Those not on campus are welcome to register to receive the 2024-2025 E&I Zoom link, which will be used for all E&I events this year (unless otherwise noted in the event post).
