Learn the ins and outs of political polling with Joshua Dyck, Director of the Center for Public Opinion at UMass Lowell.

Join Joshua Dyck, Director of the Center for Public Opinion at UMass Lowell, to learn about current polling data and forecasts, and discuss the current state of American politics, with the 2024 election as the backdrop. Dr. Dyck will also share insights from his recently published book, The Power of Partisanship. Dyck is Professor and Chair of Political Science at the University of Massachusetts Lowell, where he has been on faculty since 2012. He is the author of three books and more than two dozen peer-reviewed journal articles. His research and teaching expertise is in American elections, public opinion, voter behavior, direct democracy, and survey research. As Director of UMass Lowell’s Center for Public Opinion, Dyck has lead the center to be nationally recognized: the CPO was rated the #1 most accurate pollster from 2014-2022 according to RealClearPolitics and was given a top 10 rating by FiveThirtyEight in 2024 for pollster accuracy and transparency.
