Lunch & Learn: U.S. Elections 101

Join OISS for our first event in our U.S. Election series, U.S. Elections 101. Gregory Huber, the Chair of the Department of Political Science and the Director of the Center for the Study of American Politics, will lead a talk about the basics of the U.S. presidential election system and break down the often complicated structure of U.S. politics.

The talk will be about 45 minutes followed by 30 minutes of Q&A.

Lunch will be available for all guests, but you must register in order to attend.

Speaker Bio:
Greg's research focuses on American Politics, and is motivated by a desire to understand how the interactions among the mass public and elites, political institutions, and policies explain important outcomes.

While the particular set of topics that he writes about has evolved over time, he remains centrally interested in how individuals think about the government, how these attitudes are shaped by government action and political campaigns, and how those beliefs in turn shape citizens' political activities and government policy.

He draws on multiple methodologies in his research, including field interviews, formal modeling, survey and administrative records analysis, and different types of experimental approaches.
