As young scholars, undergraduate students at Miami have lots
to contribute to the academic community. However, many humanities majors may
find themselves at a loss to navigate and understand the disciplinary methods
behind research in their fields. Perhaps some are even asking themselves, “Why do
research in the humanities?”
Each
year the Humanities Center offers a talk to undergraduate humanities majors
interested in research. Whether these students are coming with research
projects in mind, or are simply curious about how academic research works, The
Path to Research in the Humanities will introduce students to
the benefits and purpose of research in the humanities and connect students with resources to get their projects started.
