Interested in Narrative-based Research? CoLab Summer 2025 Applications are Open!
Apply by March 26 for this paid summer internship.
CoLab is an in-person, paid summer internship in narrative-based research for UMBC undergraduates. Held during Summer Session One, student interns will work on interdisciplinary project teams to conduct research, create effective narratives, and develop public-facing final products that support the goals of on and off campus community-engaged organizations and scholars. Open to all majors, this is an excellent opportunity for students in STEM fields to learn to tell effective stories and for students in social science and humanities fields to gain research and technical skills.
Participants who successfully complete the internship receive a $3000 stipend and a tuition scholarship for the 3-credit internship course.
Program Dates
CoLab 2025 will be held during Summer Session One and meets in-person from Monday, June 2nd through Friday, June 27th. PLEASE NOTE: During these dates, student interns are required to dedicate Monday through Friday from 9:30 am – 4:00 pm to the in-person, on-campus internship.

UMBC launches new Quantum Science Institute!
UMBC recently launched the Quantum Science Institute (QSI) -- an interdisciplinary research and teaching facility composed of faculty and students from 4 academic departments at UMBC (Physics, CSEE, Math/Stats, and IS). "UMBC has a decades-long history of pioneering research in quantum information science - with people like Yanhua Shih, Mort Rubin, and Jim Franson in the Physics Department, and Sam Lomonoco in CSEE. QSI builds on this foundation with a new generation of fantastic quantum faculty across the campus. It's a great day for quantum at UMBC - we are all very excited by the interdisciplinary nature of QSI" says Dr. Todd Pittman, Professor of Physics and inaugural Director of QSI. The full story on the launch can be found here.
Representatives from all of the departments involved in the new QSI recently attended a launch event.
