Strategies for Successful and Ethical Collaborations

Collaboration is at the core of research – especially “convergent” research that brings together scholars from scholars from multiple disciplines. Yet collaboration on books, edited volumes, journal articles, and grant proposals can pose challenges. How are tasks divided up fairly? How is authorship assigned? How are creative differences resolved? What should graduate students know when starting a new collaborative project, whether with a faculty member or fellow graduate students? At this panel, seasoned scholars and collaborators will share best practices for successful, fair, and collegial research and writing collaborations.
