Research in African-American and Africana Studies

1-3 Credits

African American Studies research labs are the settings in which the most recent scholarly work of each faculty member takes place with the enterprise of conducting and disseminating research. Faculty members operate as the team leader and faculty mentor working with undergraduate students around a specific research topic or project. Students will have the opportunity to assist with reviewing literature, data gathering, data management, coding analysis, and the preparation of conference presentations and scholarly publications while advancing their own scholarship and interests, cultivating integrative skills, and gain training in a specialized aspect of the African American Studies discipline, which may not be otherwise available from other experiences on campus.
