IUPUI is Indiana's premier urban research university. The campus enrolls more than 30,000 students in 21 schools and academic units.
Summer Diversity Scholars Research Program (S-DSRP)
The Summer Diversity Scholars Research Program (S-DSRP) is an intensive, 9-week, full-time research and professional development summer program for IUPUI undergraduate students who further contribute to the rich diversity of the IUPUI campus.
S-DSRP participants are part of a vibrant learning community composed of students at multiple levels (high school, 2-year and 4-year undergraduate college, graduate school) from multiple campuses both in and outside of Indiana. S-DSRP scholars benefit from peer support, research activities, professional development, and social events and field trips. Students become involved immediately in a research setting and present their research in a campus-wide symposium at the end of the summer program.
Students applying to the Summer DSRP who also wish to be considered for the academic year Diversity Scholars Research Program may apply for both programs.
