BRIEF DESCRIPTION:

The Summer Research Laboratory (SRL) on Russia, Eastern Europe, and Eurasia (SRL) is open to all REEE scholars for eight weeks, from 14 June to 7 August, 2010. The SRL provides scholars:

• access to the resources of the University of Illinois Slavic and East European Library, one of the largest REEE libraries in the United States
• an opportunity to seek advice from the librarians of the Slavic Reference Service (SRS)
• specialized workshops for graduate students and junior scholars.

Grants are available for travel and lodging.  SRL is a U.S. Department of State Title VIII funded program. 

During the first four weeks of the Lab, the Russian, East European, and Eurasian Center also organizes conferences, evening films, noontime speakers, and social events for Lab associates.

For graduate students, it provides an opportunity to conduct research prior to going abroad for dissertation research or as they are working on their dissertation.
