Terrorism Research Opportunity
There are several research opportunities for students who are interested in terrorism with at least a 3.0 GPA. The duties required for the positions include reading transcripts of terrorist propaganda transcripts and analyzing for specific messages, persuasive techniques, etc. The nature of the project as a whole is analysis of terrorist propaganda videos. One aspect of the project will be somewhat descriptive in that we hope to learn: 1) who the target audience is 2) what the message of the video is, 3) if the target audience, the message, or the frequency of these tapes has a discernable pattern, and 4) if these patterns change over time.
Credit compensation is available. Please contact Lauren Boyatzi at [email protected] for more information.
