Research Project: Understanding Asian American Narratives

Students who participated in our Fall Research Workshop 2023 had the opportunity to learn how to do research to better understand and draw insights from quantitative and qualitative data on an issue in the Asian American community. Students learned how to conduct a systematic literature review and presented your findings in the form of poster presentations. The students also created a digital repository detailing their findings.
