Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences Summer Institute
Building on the University of Mary Washington’s long-standing commitment to mentoring undergraduate research and creativity in our students, and more than twenty years of a successful summer research program for students in the sciences (Summer Science Institute), the UMW College of Arts and Sciences began a new program for students in the Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences (AHSSSI) in the Summer of 2022.
This program, which takes place during the first summer session (May/June), gives students an opportunity to work with a faculty mentor on various projects in small teams of 2-4 students. Students receive a small stipend, as well as room and board to live and work on campus during the program.
Summer 2026 AHSSSI will begin May 18, with the final symposium on June 17, 2026.
