Training Faculty
Interdisciplinary demographic training and research at CDE is supported by a longstanding ethos of collaborative research across departments or colleges at UW–Madison.
CDE’s training faculty consists of a highly productive collection of population scholars from over 20 different departments on campus. The training faculty’s diverse array of disciplinary backgrounds expose predoctoral students to a broad array of topics and methodological approaches within population research.
All training faculty participate in the demography training program by offering instruction relevant to the training mission, as well advising, mentoring, and serving on trainees’ dissertation committees.
Additionally, training faculty lead large-scale, funded research projects that support trainees as research assistants and collaborators. Check out some of our training faculty’s ongoing research projects here.
