PULSAR is an interdisciplinary program for undergraduate students with interests in language science. The University of Maryland has the largest and most integrated team of language scientists in North America, and PULSAR enables undergraduates to tap into this unique resource, providing them with opportunities beyond those found in their primary major.
The PULSAR program develops students’ abilities in integration, communication, discovery, and leadership – skills that are in high demand in today’s society. As members of PULSAR, students have opportunities to build their résumés, develop a relationship with a scientific mentor, and become a member of a strong, collaborative group of peers. With the PULSAR program, we aim to provide undergraduate students with a breadth of experiences and training that can prepare them for careers in research, technology, education, health, and public policy.
The program accepts new students each semester. Applications for Fall 2023 are due May 26th.
