About the Summit

There will not be a 2024 HBCU/MSI Research Summit, but we will resume in Fall of 2025.

Based on the feedback of many different entities -- our Planning Committee, departmental contacts and partners, Summit attendees, and other strategic partners - we are taking this year to regroup and redevelop this signature event. 

We will be engaging collaborators from Virginia Tech as well as several key partner institutions in this redevelopment process, and will share information as it is relevant. 

Please feel free to reach out with questions.
