Events

Alongside developing innovative research, CCIS endeavors to develop greater public engagement with migration studies through comprehensive outreach and education. CCIS has frequently hosted migration workshops and conferences, and has maintained a longstanding research seminar series. Open to the campus and the general public, the series continues to provide the opportunity for Visiting Fellows, Guest Scholars, UCSD faculty, and outside guest speakers to present and receive feedback on their most recent work.
