Enhancing Research: A Workshop for Political Scientists from Underrepresented Groups This project organizes a three-day workshop for young political scientists from underrepresented minority groups. The workshop will be held at Duke University in February 2011, and will consist of panels devoted to mentoring, developing networks, publishing, teaching, and the tenure process for faculty members in higher education. A dozen panelists will present to 36 junior faculty participants. While the numbers of underrepresented minorities with doctorates in political science are increasing slowly, the numbers receiving tenure are not increasing proportionately. This workshop will offer guidance to help participants in their professional development. The workshop will thus help ensure that a diverse group of scholars is conducting political science research.In addition to its intellectual merits, the workshop has significant and substantial broader impacts. It is expressly designed to broaden the participation and retention of underrepresented groups in political science as a profession. The workshop deliberately focuses on enhancing scientific networks and collaboration. It actively engages in the training of young political scientists who are members of underrepresented groups, and is intended to increase the probability that they will be able to contribute to advancing the field and to teaching future generations. The workshop thus enhances the diversity of the discipline of political science, making important contributions to scholarship, teaching, learning, and society at large.

加强研究：为来自代表性不足的群体的政治科学家举办研讨会 该项目为来自代表性不足的少数群体的年轻政治科学家组织了为期三天的研讨会。该研讨会将于 2011 年 2 月在杜克大学举行，由专门讨论高等教育教员的指导、发展网络、出版、教学和终身教职流程的小组组成。十几位小组成员将向 36 名初级教职人员进行介绍。虽然拥有政治学博士学位的少数族裔人数缓慢增加，但获得终身教职的人数却没有相应增加。该研讨会将为参与者的专业发展提供指导。因此，该研讨会将有助于确保多元化的学者群体进行政治科学研究。除了其学术价值外，该研讨会还具有重大而广泛的影响。它的明确目的是扩大政治学专业中代表性不足群体的参与和保留。该研讨会刻意侧重于加强科学网络和合作。它积极参与对属于代表性不足群体的年轻政治科学家的培训，旨在提高他们为推动该领域发展和教育后代做出贡献的可能性。因此，该研讨会增强了政治学学科的多样性，为学术、教学、学习和整个社会做出了重要贡献。
