The University of Chicago’s Summer Institute in Social Research Methods (SISRM) combines classroom instruction, workshops, and hands-on research experience for undergraduate and early-career graduate students. This five-week session offers accelerated training in theoretically-grounded research methodologies to better understand and develop more informed policy and program solutions to real-world problems, including challenges in public health, criminal justice, economics, human development and other areas.
Courses: Participants must enroll in at least one Summer Quarter course that is part of the SISRM to be part of the program. Visit the SISRM website for more information about course offerings.
Research Opportunities: Undergraduates enrolled in the SISRM are eligible to participate in the research assistant grant program which provides a faculty-mentored research experience in summer. Awardees will work as paid part-time research assistants on an ongoing research project of a Social Sciences faculty member. Go here to learn more.
Self-registration for Summer Quarter will begin March 1, 2021.
The application for Summer 2021 programs will open in early 2021.
