DePaul University’s Student Urban Research Corps (SURC) is housed in The College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences and is made up of graduate and undergraduate student researchers. Corps members work on urban and community-based studies and projects as part of the multidisciplinary Urban Collaborative. SURC students can provide technical and analytical skills to support your community organization or municipality.
