Established in 1999, the BSOS Summer Research Initiative (SRI) has enhanced behavioral and social science research and scholarship by providing an opportunity for more diverse students to engage in intensive, summer undergraduate research experiences. Save the date for Thursday, July 27 from 4-7 p.m. at the Samuel Riggs IV Alumni Center at the University of Maryland in College Park, Maryland.
Since the SRI encourages them to pursue graduate degrees in our social science disciplines, SRI alumni can now be found as academics in universities, health and mental health service providers in all kinds of settings, attorneys, doctoral-level researchers, analysts, and high level administrators in governmental agencies, NGOs, private industry, teachers and administrators, and a host of other occupations where their diverse perspectives are being used to address some of the world’s great challenges.
Our 25th anniversary celebration will include:
- A celebratory reception and dinner
- Social and professional networking
- Research presentations from the 2023 BSOS SRI participants
- Reflections and remarks from selected SRI alumni and selected SRI mentors
- Other special programming to be announced
