This is a project-based unit. Building upon the capabilities and skills of research methods that they have already developed, the students sharpen them and apply them to undertaking a research project. Each student prepares a research proposal that is relevant to their disciplinary areas and/or to their personal interests, and then implement the project and complete a final research report. This holistic research process includes research design, data collection, analysis, interpretation, communication, and project management. It provides an experiential opportunity to prepare the students to become the type of knowledge workers who can solve real world problems through conducting independent and rigorous research.
