Please join us on Friday, November 8, 2024 from 8:30 am-3:30 pm ET for this FREE online faculty professional development conference that will explore the topic of migration today through the lens of politics, economics, and climatic changes. The day's schedule will be comprised of four presenters who will each address the topic through different globally thematic and regional perspectives.

On October 16-17, scholars and advocates from the Scholars at Risk Network will gather to promote academic freedom locally, in the U.S., and around the world. The 2024 SAR United States General Assembly will provide a forum for us to discuss how we can best protect scholars and defend everyone’s freedom to think, question, and share ideas.
The Graduate Organisation for the Study of Europe and Central Asia (GOSECA) at the University of Pittsburgh invites graduate students from various disciplines to participate in our annual conference. This year's theme aims to explore the multifaceted and dynamic nature of the East European and Eurasian region, a crossroads where East meets West. We encourage scholars to unravel the intricate web of cultures, politics, economies, and more that intersect in the region, fostering a deeper understanding of its complexity.
The Center for Governance and Markets will host the Annual Conference for CESS 2023, which will be held at the University of Pittsburgh from October 19-22, 2023. The CESS 2023 annual conference keynote speaker is Dr. Ayşe Zarakol, author of After Defeat: How the East Learned to Live with the West and Before the West: the Rise and Fall of Eastern World Orders.
Through experiential learning, high school students engage directly with global issues by assuming the role of world leaders and negotiating responses to timely topics.
Russia, Eastern Europe, and Central Asia are often conceptualized as a single geopolitical unit. The 21st century has challenged these conceptions due to breakthroughs in technology and medicine, new regional conflicts, and the continuing effects of globalization. These transformations have molded individuals, nations, cultures, languages, and disciplines, provoking questions of identity. For our platinum conference GOSECA invites presentations exploring identity today.
Professor Charles Kotuby Jr., Professor John C. Camillus, Professor Kish Parella, Benjamin Longlet, Wendy Miles QC, Professor Matthew Murray, Jo Anne Schendingen, Professor Bopaya Bidanda, Kristi Gedid, Professor John Lipinski, Mukesh Rustagi will present on the Environmental, Social, and Governance factors that increasingly drive corporate decision-making and foreign investment. This has become especially true this past year, with the onset of geopolitical crises in Ukraine, Afghanistan, and Myanmar.
Through experiential learning, high school students engage directly with global issues by assuming the role of world leaders and negotiating responses to timely topics.
