“Attending the iGov Research Institute was one of the most valuable experiences of my graduate student education. The summer institute provided a multifaceted academic occasion which granted me an opportunity to view international digital government research and practice through a multi-disciplinary, multi-cultural lens.”

— Kayenda Johnson, 2007 Institute Student, Virginia Tech
