Institute for Civically Engaged Research (ICER)</a><span style="font-family:Arial,sans-serif">, I am writing to encourage you to apply for our annual four-day, residential institute that provides political scientists with training to conduct ethical and rigorous
civically engaged research. Up to 20 scholars will be selected as ICER Fellows and invited to attend the 2026 Summer Institute. ICER Fellows will network with other like-minded political scientists, and together, learn best practices for conducting academically
robust, mutually beneficial scholarship in collaboration with communities, organizations, and agencies outside of academia.</span></div>
