“Hands-on Minds-on: Multidisciplinary Approaches to Understanding and Preventing Societal Violence

In summer 2012, Virginia Tech will offer a unique interdisciplinary NSF funded REU (Research Experience for Undergraduates) program specifically designed for students from Virginia community colleges and 4 year institutions around the country. The program brings scholars together from the colleges of Engineering, Liberal Arts and Human Sciences, and Science to study the topic if societal violence. Students will be paid $4,500 stipend, travel and free housing (with 3 meals per day included!) on our campus for 10 weeks from May 21 to July 27. Attached please find our REU information sheet and the application form. I would appreciate very much if you can distribute it to students who might be interested in this program.

The application deadline is March 30. If you have questions about the program, please see the contact information in the application form.
