Visiting Scholars Program
In order to accomplish the mission of the Consortium, we have established a Visiting Scholars Program that encourages multicultural researchers from around the country and other parts of the world to spend time with us to collaborate on various research projects in conjunction with our research networks. Visiting Scholars will spend anywhere from one week to one year at the Consortium for Multicultural Psychology Research in order to plan, execute and complete research projects.
