Dear all,

I am looking for a motivated individual interested in pursuing a PhD in geography at the University of Maryland Baltimore County (ges.umbc.edu) with interests in one of the following two areas.
- Migration, children’s rights, and uneven development in Peru. Must be comfortable in Spanish.
- Social justice issues related to poverty and segregation in Baltimore, with particular interest in how housing and education inequality affect children.
Experience or interest in participatory youth mapping a plus.
Please send email inquiries to Dena Aufseeser at daufsee@umbc.edu with more information about your specific interests or to learn more. Graduate admissions deadlines are Feb. 1.
