Summer Research Institute at Maryland

The University of Maryland has a "wonderful summer research opportunity for undergraduate students at the University of Maryland - College Park (see attached announcement). This program is geared at rising juniors and seniors who are interested in pursuing graduate studies in political science. All students are eligible; however, we highly encourage those from underrepresented populations (i.e. African Americans, Hispanics, American Indians, Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians or other Pacific Islanders) to apply."

"[They] expect 10-12 scholars to participate in the upcoming eight-week experience (from June 3 - July 28, 2007). Events and activities will include lab and research experiences, didactic science lectures, professional development, mentoring, and networking. Accepted students will be provided round-trip airfare, meals, room and board and a $2,700 stipend. The application deadline is February 9, 2007."
