Dr. Teresa Cornacchione

Associate Director & Assistant Instructional Professor

Thank you for visiting my page. I earned my doctorate in political science from Florida State University in 2018. Prior to pursuing my PhD, I worked as a Florida public high school teacher in Santa Rosa County, FL. After receiving my doctorate, she taught political science courses at FSU, including Western European Politics, the Politics of the European Union, Introduction to Comparative Politics, and Women and Politics. I then served as a legislative policy analyst with the Florida Legislature’s Office of Program Policy Analysis and Government Accountability (OPPAGA).  I was thrilled to join the Bob Graham Center and the University of Florida in 2022 as the Civic Engagement & Undergraduate Research Coordinator. I am thrilled to now serve as the Associate Director. I also have affiliate status with the Department of Political Science (graduate faculty status),  and the Department of Gender, Sexuality and Women’s Studies. I continue to love teaching and working with students on their academic journey.  Explore more below.
