Registration is now open for the University of Minnesota's 2025 Engaged Scholars Summer Institute, a professional development opportunity for University faculty, staff, and postdoctoral associates seeking to increase their understanding of community-engaged scholarship.
This year's event will take place on July 9-11 at the Graduate Hotel on the East Bank of the University's Twin Cities campus. An agenda will be posted later this spring. For travel purposes, onsite registration begins at noon on July 9 and the event will end by 2 p.m. on July 11.
