>> CURE: Call for research project proposals - Summer 2009
Tuesday, July 07, 2009 - 08:06 PM
CURE (Community University Research Exchange) is a project of QPIRG-Concordia and QPIRG-McGill. CURE is a database by which students can integrate their academic research with the work of local movements and activist organizations. Through the administrative infrastructures already in place at McGill and Concordia University, students may complete a CURE research project as an independent study course, internship, or thesis advised by a departmental professor, or as a term project for an upper-level class. By connecting students to non-profit community groups with limited resources, we hope to encourage and support academic research that is socially relevant.
Submit your research proposals this summer!
Students will begin taking on research projects during the fall 2009 semester, so we are encouraging local activist groups, collectives, and community organizations to submit their research proposals during the summer. A copy of the research request form is attached. You can fill it out and email it to cure.mtl@gmail.com, or find more information about the project on our website, www.qpirgconcordia.org/cure.
For more information, please don't hesitate to contact Aaron Lakoff, the CURE coordinator, at cure.mtl@gmail.com or 514-848-7585.
