​J.J. "Jake" Pickle Undergraduate Research Fellowship Program

In my capacity as the Director of Undergraduate Research for the Policy Agendas Project, I co-direct the J.J. "Jake" Pickle Undergraduate Research Fellowship Program. Through this program, I teach a year-long undergraduate course on American politics research and guide students through the development of original research projects. Students enrolled in the course also work as research assistants for the U.S. Agendas Project - I train them on the coding scheme and manage their collection and coding of Project data.

​My teaching and coding training materials can be found here. I am happy to supply the answer keys to coding training documents upon request.
