Study with us

Understanding the existing nature and effects of new return generating finance requires nimble, interdisciplinary thinkers. We welcome applications from interested graduate students keen on field-based research linked to our research questions.

This project is led by Dr. Jessica Dempsey at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. Students would be expected to pursue their MA or doctorate in (human) Geography at the University  of British Columbia under the supervision of Dr. Dempsey (with possible committee participation from Drs. Bigger, Shapiro and Nelson).

Those interested should review the project parameters on this website, Jessica Dempsey’s research interests, and check out UBC Geography’s website, including admission guidelines for graduate students before making contact.

After all that, if it seems like a good fit, do get in touch! Write directly to Dr. Dempsey. When making contact you should outline your background and interests as they directly link to this project.  Send along a resume and unofficial transcripts.
