Borderlands Graduate Affiliates
Become a Borderlands Graduate Affiliate!
The Center of the Borderlands aims to build an interdisciplinary community of UTRGV grad students whose research deepens understanding of Mexican American, Borderlands, and Latino/a experiences. We invite graduate students from disciplines as diverse as anthropology, history, education, sociology, public policy, literature, STEM, and the arts to affiliate with the Center.
Our Graduate Affiliate program offers opportunities to:
- Connect and collaborate with grad students and faculty across UTRGV with shared interests;
- Present your work in progress in an informal and supportive setting;
- Join interdisciplinary working and writing groups;
- Receive updates on grants, fellowships, conferences, and other academic opportunities; and
- Have your profile and work featured on our website.
Borderlands Graduate Affiliates are expected to remain actively involved in Center activities, present their research at the Borderlands Symposium (poster or presentation) in their Senior year, and attend at least two Center events each semester.
