PDI's research is divided into yearly project cycles. As an incoming researcher, your first quarter with PDI will be dedicated to research workshops and community-building events. At the end of your first quarter, you will be assigned to a project group. As part of this team of typically between 5 and 10 researchers, you will spend the next two quarters diving into a research question and coming up with insights into society's problems. You can see past projects here. The culmination of your year of research is PDI's Annual Symposium, a time and space for your team to share their conclusions with fellow PDI researchers, professors, project partners, community members, and more!
PDI strives to create a fun and supportive community where everyone learns. As such, no prior experience is necessary to join PDI, and we welcome undergraduates of all backgrounds to apply.
