MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT
I am pleased to announce the transfer of IQRMI to the Kirwan Institute for the Study of Race & Ethnicity under the directorship of Dr. Ange-Marie Hancock who will direct and oversee future IQRMI programs. Her work and experiences are deeply rooted in the values of equity and inclusion, and an intersectional lens guides her work. We have observed the sense of community that she forged with the IQRMI 2024 summer cohort. Dr. Hancock will certainly continue to build the legacy of IQRMI and foster the next generation of scholars with future IQRMIs.
If you are interested in being added to the IQRMI Application Distribution List, please email kirwan-admin@osu.edu.

About The Institute
Since 2015, the Consortium on Race, Gender and Ethnicity (CRGE) has organized the week-long Intersectional Qualitative Research Methods Institute (IQRMI). Few training institutes in the country focus on qualitative research methods and, currently, none incorporate discussions regarding the intersections of race, gender, class, ethnicity, and other dimensions of inequality.
The Intersectional Qualitative Research Methods Institute is the first of its kind in the Committee on Institutional Cooperation (CIC) and nationwide for intersectional early career scholars.
Specific areas of research include the following:
- Youth, Trauma, Violence, Justice and Race
- Families and Communities at Risk
- Educational Pathways
- Health Disparities and Health Equity
Institute’s Goals
- Develop critical intersectional perspectives for designing and interpreting research
- Enhance qualitative research and writing skills
- Develop and hone navigational skills to successfully negotiate academic career paths
The Institute has been generously supported by the New Connections Program, a national program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and the Office of Diversity and Inclusion at the University of Maryland, College Park.
The Institute includes session such as:
- Intersectional methodology
- Conducting qualitative research with diverse communities
- IRB process for qualitative studies
- Career paths in higher education
Each session has assigned and suggested readings.
