Research Students conduct original research under the guidance of a faculty mentor or assist faculty with their on-going research projects.
Faculty do research, publish and present all over the world.
Collaborative student research frequently leads to presentations or posters at state, regional and national conferences and publications in professional journals. In recent years, thirteen students have achieved first place awards for presentations. Students have also co-authored over twenty publications. CLAS students develop advanced skills in research methods, project management, personnel development, negotiation and presentation through their participation in projects for UT s Institute for Community Research. In a one-semester required Strategic Analysis Program, local organizations rely on undergraduate College of Business students to produce a strategic analysis.
