Deisy Del Real, PhD

International Migration Scholar

About me.

Dr. Deisy Del Real is an assistant professor of sociology at the University of Southern California. From 2022 to 2026, she serves as the appointed delegate of the American Sociological Association (ASA) to the International Sociological Association (ISA, UNESCO). Dr. Del Real completed her Ph.D. in Sociology at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) in 2019. Through various award-winning research projects, she examines how immigration policies—ranging from inclusive to exclusive—impact immigrants’ lives and how officials and advocates can advance legislation promoting immigrant rights and inclusion. In one project spanning the Americas, including the United States, she investigates how different legal residency statuses affect the livelihoods of Venezuelan, Mexican, and Bolivian immigrants. Her book manuscript explains how South American government officials defied nativist trends in wealthy countries and utilized regional intergovernmental organizations to pass policies that eliminate barriers to immigrant rights.
