Research

  • Complete a Senior Capstone Experience (SCE), pursing a topic that interests you from beginning to end. SCE projects can be creating a business plan, researching a company or industry, or conducting independent research. Funding is available to support SCE research.
  • Assist faculty in their research as a Warehime Research Fellow. Funding is available to fellows. Research done as a Warehime fellow could be used as part of an SCE project or could lead to a published case study.  
  • Attend conferences, like the American Association of Colleges and Universities Conference on Global Learning, the American Marketing Association conference, Quinnipiac GAME Forum, and others specific to your interests.
  • Create your own research project. Support, financial or otherwise, is available across campus, including through the Hodson Collaborative Research Program or the Cater Society for Junior Fellows
