The Community Development and Regional Outreach (CDRO) Department launched the Visiting Scholars Program to broaden and enhance its research capacity by drawing on the expertise of leading scholars in areas of interest. Visiting scholars are expected to advise the department’s current and proposed initiatives, engage with department staff to share experiences, and collaborate with CDRO on research projects and outreach efforts. The Visiting Scholars Program also hosts guest lectures and occasionally sponsors collaborative research with CDRO staff based on mutual interest. The Visiting Scholars Program is by invitation only, and please contact Lei Ding if you have any questions. Current scholars are recognized below.
