Back to top

Research is an integral part of the School of International Service's undergraduate experience and a cornerstone of the SIS BA degree. More than just a set of skills, research is a mindset. SIS is committed to supporting undergraduate research, as it empowers students to be critical consumers and producers of knowledge and equips them with skills critical for success in future courses and careers.

While students will complete six credits of research methodology in SISU-206 and SISU-306, there are numerous opportunities for SIS students to take their research beyond the classroom. The School of International Service is committed to supporting undergraduate research and offers a wide range of resources to support students in the conduct of research and in the presentation and publication of their research.
