The annual meeting
The caucus at MPSA.
The caucus meets members where the discipline gathers: the annual meeting of the Midwest Political Science Association.
Why MPSA matters to the caucus
MPSA is the regional association for political science in the Midwest. Its annual meeting brings scholars together each spring.
The caucus uses the meeting for mentoring roundtables and award roundtables. It is a fixed point for pairs who do not share a campus.
The next meeting
The 84th Annual MPSA Conference is listed for April 1 to April 4, 2027, at the Palmer House Hilton in Chicago and online.
This site does not list a 2027 caucus program. Visit the MPSA conference page (opens in a new tab) for the current schedule.
What the caucus brings to MPSA
- A mentoring roundtable for paired scholars.
- A roundtable honoring the Outstanding Professional Achievement Award recipient.
- Graduate travel support for students who present papers.
- Early career recognition announced through the caucus.
From the public record
The public site's last MPSA note looked ahead to the 2019 meeting and mentioned a fall 2018 panel survey. This page keeps that record while pointing readers to current MPSA information.
