"Hands-on Minds-on": Multidisciplinary Approaches to Understanding and Preventing Societal Violence In summer 2013, 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. Last year 6 of the 10 participants were from Virginia Community Colleges.
The program brings scholars together from the colleges of Engineering, Liberal Arts and Human Sciences, and Science to study the topic of societal violence. Students will be paid a $5,000 stipend, and provided travel, free housing and meals on our campus for 10 weeks from May 28 to August 2.
