of research on language into the educational curriculum.
Undergra
duate students who participate in the PIRE program will have the opportu
nity to work closely with Penn State research faculty who study language
from a variety of perspectives. They will also spend a summer abroad at
one of our partner institutions (in Europe, Latin America, and Asia) pa
rticipating in collaborative projects, both in an academic setting and t
hrough educational and community outreach efforts. This is an excellent
opportunity to engage in hands-on research in an exciting field with sig
nificant social implications.
Expenses to travel abroad during the
