Community service

As part of its mandate, the ETRC functions as a focal point for community service and community-based learning by establishing partnerships with community organizations, acting as a liaison between the University and surrounding regional groups, and contributing to experiential learning.

Volunteers Wanted:

Researchers in the department of psychology of Bishop's University are seeking volunteers (1st, and 2nd generation immigrants/refugees) belonging to visible and non-visible minority groups (minimum age:18 years old) from the Eastern Townships for a psychosocial study about immigrant cultural identity and intercultural relations. Participants would be expected to attend one session lasting 45 to 60 minutes. Your participation will help us better understand the psychosocial factors shaping immigrants' perceptions of majority and minority group relations.

Experience first hand the research process at a small university and earn a chance to win a $50 voucher at your favorite grocery store!
