The American Political Science Association (APSA) is proud to announce its 120th Annual Meeting & Exhibition, where political science experts and scholars from around the world will gather to discuss the latest scholarship in the field. This highly anticipated event will take place from September 30th to October 3rd, 2021, at the Hilton Baltimore Inner Harbor Hotel in Baltimore, Maryland.
The APSA Annual Meeting is a premier event for political scientists, providing a platform for the exchange of ideas, research, and collaboration. This year’s theme, “Promoting Pluralism,” highlights the importance of diversity and inclusivity in political science and the broader social sciences. With over 6,000 attendees expected, this meeting promises to be a dynamic and enriching experience for all.
The four-day event will feature a diverse range of panels, workshops, roundtables, and poster presentations, covering a wide range of topics in political science. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage with leading experts and scholars, learn about cutting-edge research, and participate in thought-provoking discussions. The APSA Annual Meeting is an excellent opportunity for political scientists at all stages of their careers to network, share their work, and gain valuable insights from their peers.
One of the highlights of the Annual Meeting is the Presidential Address, delivered by the current APSA President, Dr. Paula D. McClain. Dr. McClain is a renowned political scientist and professor at Duke University, whose research focuses on race, ethnicity, and politics. Her address, titled “Promoting Pluralism: The Role of Political Science in a Diverse Society,” promises to be a thought-provoking and inspiring talk.
In addition to the panels and presentations, the APSA Annual Meeting also offers a variety of professional development opportunities. These include workshops on publishing, teaching, and career advancement, as well as networking events and mentoring sessions. These sessions are designed to help attendees enhance their skills, expand their knowledge, and advance their careers in political science.
