College of Arts and Humanities Social Innovation Scholars Program

The College of Arts and Humanities is accepting applications for the third cohort in its Social Innovation Scholars Program starting in spring 2015. Offered through its ARHU Center for Synergy, the program is an opportunity for students, regardless of major, to work closely with a faculty mentor and a non-profit organization to learn how to develop and implement a strategy for social innovation in a cause they care about.

We are looking for students who are passionate, creative and talented enough to research and develop useful strategies. Each student works with a different organization in a customized program. Over the course of a calendar year, scholars research, design and implement their own innovative solution to the organization's challenges. We will begin accepting and considering applications *November 20* until *December 8* or until filled. This program is open to all UM students, regardless of major.


If interested, please email Ms. Ashley Richerson Miller at arichers@umd.edu <mailto:arichers@umd.edu> by December 8 with your application form, essay, resume and nomination letter. Finalists will be interviewed. Space is limited so act fast! This is a great opportunity to work with a faculty member and build your resume!
