OSGA Research Projects

In a dynamic research environment, OSGA explores cultural, economic, political, and social questions through the study of world regions in local, global, and comparative contexts. Employing qualitative, quantitative, and computational methods with a strong ethical foundation, our interdisciplinary research aims to impact and benefit the economy, society, culture, and public policy beyond academia.
