Abstract: 

Service learning has not yet gained wide acceptance at research universities. Here the authors present a model of combining research and service learning at an urban research institution. The Community Based Research Institute is an interdisciplinary summer academic experience in which undergraduate students and community partners collaborate to meet a community-defined research need.
