President Barron blogs about the power of language
At a recent brown bag luncheon, Penn State President Eric Barron learned about the Center for Language Science, an outfit that examines everything from language acquisition to bilingualism to cognition to neurobiology.
PIRE I application deadline for Summer 2017 moved to January 9, 2017
The PIRE team has decided that we will also offer PIRE II ('new' PIRE) graduate fellowships for Summer 2017 (more information on this follows soon), and we also offer PIRE II undergraduate fellowships for Summer 2017. This all means that we will (hopefully!) have many graduate and undergraduate students traveling to many different locations, and coordinating and organizing the research, travel and housing arrangements will be an operational challenge. Having some extra time to make these arrangements for graduate students traveling through the 'old' PIRE will be in everyone's best interest.
