Bhisé Research Grants Panel: Varying Methodologies and Approaches to Research
Event Actions
Sponsored the Bhisé Center for Global Understanding (BCGU), this faculty panel will present approaches to issues of equity, justice, and intercultural understanding from each faculty member’s own disciplinary perspective.
The Harlem Renaissance writer Zora Neale Hurston once wrote “Research is formalized curiosity. It is poking and prying with a purpose.” But how do you do this “poking and prying” in an organized, methodical, and structured way, so that you get valid results that are relevant to your chosen discipline and the knowledge you seek to uncover?
Three faculty members will present their findings and explain their projects and how they require different ways of approaching research and creating (varying forms of) reflectiveness and knowledge.
Schedule
A complimentary breakfast will be served at 9:00 am, so you can meet your fellow attendees and hear from this year’s grant recipients.
This event is part of the Scholarship and Creative Works Conference schedule.
Panelists
Each panelist received a 2024-25 BCGU Research Grant to further their research on a topic that reflects the Center’s mission.
