Dr. 皮革、皮革制品齐亚
Associate Professor of 人类学 and Gender Studies
Believing deeply in the power of the written word, 人类学 and Gender Studies professor 皮革、皮革制品齐亚, PhD, started her professional life as a journalist. Zia, who is from Kashmir, worked for the BBC but found that what she really wanted to do was to give voice to the political dispute and the stories of her homeland. Zia earned a doctorate in anthropology at UC Irvine in 2014 and came to UNC as an assistant professor that same year. Since then, she’s found her voice — and given others opportunities to find theirs.
