Academic research is becoming more and more collaborative, from conceiving of initial projects to writing funding applications to producing publications. But how do you get started? How do you keep collaborations going, especially across the physical science-social science divide? What are the implications for doing collaborative rather than solo work in terms of career advancement? In this colloquium, three faculty members from our department will address these questions and more based on their experience in physical geography, human geography, GIS, and across disciplines and sub-disciplines. Bruce Rhoads, Siân Butcher, and Shaowen Wang will share their experiences, especially of interest to graduate students and junior faculty.
