Student research assistants (RAs) work with faculty and staff on research projects assisting with literature review, data collection, data analysis, and writing. Research assistants often have the opportunity to write, publish, and present their own research.
The Institute issues small grants for faculty for either research or programming that focuses on relevant themes and interests of the institute. To inquire about a faculty grant, please contact sdoan@cmc.edu.
