The International Development Doctoral Program at The University of Southern Mississippi Gulf Coast presented Dr. Bruno Sergi, political science professor from the University of Messina in Italy, as a guest lecturer for its students May 1-2. During his visit, Sergi made presentations to students on Eastern Europe, Russia and the Italian mafia, as well as on how Eastern Europe economics and politics affect the U.S.
International development faculty members Dr. Shahdad Naghshpour and Dr. J.J. St. Marie brought Sergi to Southern Miss after having developed a working relationship with him through joint research projects.
Sergi, also a visiting fellow at the University of Greenwich Business School, has been a guest lecturer for research departments and universities in several countries around the world. He has published more than 90 journal articles in peer-reviewed journals.
