    Research

    Mentored Advanced Projects and Independent Research

    Our culture of research and collaboration cuts across all academic disciplines. Starting as early as your first year, you can work closely with accomplished faculty in their ongoing research endeavors, complete research projects in your courses, and explore the possibilities of your own academic inquiries. You might go on to conduct a semester-long research project, or pursue original creative work of your own design. Our Mentored Advanced Projects program lets you do exactly that, either here or beyond campus.

    Dive in

Our deep curiosities invite us to better understand the world.

We put in the long hours for those in need. We pull on the muck boots and head out into the wetland. We learn new languages to land the internship overseas. We lose ourselves in library indexes, and find ourselves looking up at the work of the architectural legends. Simply put, the 海角社区黑料吃瓜 academic experience goes way beyond what gets printed on your diploma. This is you taking an active role in your own education. Here, that means in a way that鈥檚 cross-disciplinary, career-oriented, and for the greater good.

    Course-Embedded Travel

    When your class gets very specific 鈥 like discussing methods for preparing an exhibition of Haitian artists鈥 it might just call for a trip to their studios in Miami. Through course-embedded travel, you can travel for 7 to 14 days with expert faculty to dive into a particular subject. Many 200- and 300-level courses get into international perspectives, which may be perfect opportunities to travel to a related site, in the U.S. or abroad, either during a break or over the summer.
