Malone Research: Advancing Innovation and Academic Excellence

At Malone University, students don’t learn new knowledge—they create it. Beyond traditional coursework, authentic research pushes the boundaries of discovery. We encourage you to collaborate with faculty mentors who provide guidance and support as you explore new ideas and contribute to innovation across disciplines.

Participants in student research have opportunities to:

• Gain experience creating scholarship in their discipline.
• Acquire knowledge and skills that will help them in future jobs or in graduate school.
• Solve real problems and create new knowledge.
• Benefit from the mentorship of faculty members.
• Have learning experiences as undergraduates that are typically reserved for graduate students.
