Heather Silber Mohamed receives Early Career Award at Chicago conference<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n Professor Heather Silber Mohamed’s research interests include immigrant socialization and participation, immigration policy, and identity politics in the U.S., with a focus on the influence of race, class, and gender.\n

<\/p>\n

Clark University political science<\/a> professor Heather Silber Mohamed<\/a> received the 2019 Midwest Political Science Association<\/a> (MPSA) Latino\/a Caucus Early Career Award<\/a> at the MPSA annual meeting in Chicago on April 5. The award recognizes a pre-tenure Latino politics scholar who has contributed significant research to the discipline.<\/p>\n

Silber Mohamed tweeted that she was “deeply honored” to receive the award, and she thanked the Caucus, and outgoing president Betina Wilkinson for her leadership and community-building. Silber Mohamed is starting her second year as treasurer of the organization.<\/p>\n

An assistant professor in the Political Science Department at Clark, Silber Mohamed’s research interests include immigrant socialization and participation, immigration policy, and identity politics in the U.S., with a focus on the influence of race, class, and gender. She is the author of “The New Americans?: Immigration, Protest, and the Politics of Latino Identity<\/a>” and several peer-reviewed journal articles on immigration, reproductive issues, and gender and identity among Latinos in the U.S.<\/p>\n

$\"Heather$ Silber Mohamed earned her bachelor’s degree from Tufts University<\/a> and holds an M.Sc. from the London School of Economics<\/a>, as well as master’s and doctoral degrees from Brown University<\/a>. She has been on the Clark faculty since 2013, and is affiliated with the Latin American and Latino Studies<\/a> concentration and the program in Women’s and Gender Studies<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The MPSA Latino\/a Caucus<\/a> works to promote professional equity for Latinas\/os working within political science and those who study the Latina\/o\/x political diaspora through the sponsorship of sessions at the annual MPSA meeting, as well as through work with the MPSA to promote the interests of Latina\/o political scientists, by encouraging inclusive research around Latina\/o political life, and serving as a network for members.<\/p>\n
