Business in a Liberal Arts College: Undergraduate Research Experiences That Cultivate Habits of the Heart and Mind
Baker, Vicki L.; Carlson, John
Scholarship and Practice of Undergraduate Research, v2 n2 p49-54 Win 2018
The authors discuss a course-based undergraduate research (UR) experience in business, seeking to continue a conversation initiated by Miller and DeLoach (2016) regarding undergraduate research in professional fields. The current state of liberal arts colleges and business education is described, as are the three modes of thinking developed by students during their UR participation. The authors also discuss lessons learned and provide insights into the components needed to support a course-based UR experience in other settings.
