Dr. Vande Kamp leads a dual research agenda in judicial politics and political methodology. His substantive research asks the question “When and how do constitutional courts invalidate laws as unconstitutional?” His methodological research develops regression techniques for modeling observational data that have a temporal, spatial, or spatiotemporal component. Prior to arriving in Georgia, he received his Ph.D. in Political Science at Texas A&M University. Dr. Vande Kamp’s working papers and course materials can be found on his professional website.
