Event: WEDS TALK: Institute for Field Research

ABSTRACT: Are you thinking about a field school this summer or next year? Come learn about the unique programs offered through IFR, the Institute for Field Research. UCLA students who previously completed a program will be there to share their experiences, and we'll have time to answer any questions you might have about field schools for us or your peers. IFR programs allow you to embrace your curiosity while earning academic credit and gaining practical hands-on experience for future work or studies. We will also share information about a scholarship just for LA students attending our field schools.
