Social Science Undergraduate Research Initiative (SSURI)

What is SSURI?

The Social Sciences Undergraduate Research Initiative (SSURI) is designed to engage sophomore and junior SSU students in the "research life" of the university. The program offers financial support for students and faculty to work together on a shared research project. Learn more about SSURI by reading the SSURI 3-Year Report, 2016-2018.
