Many business students will need to conduct research throughout their future careers, and the opportunities available at the Institute can provide solid footing for interested parties.Įven if participation in research isn’t for everyone, exposure, even by proxy, to the high level research going on here can have implications in classrooms and boardrooms alike.
#THE KENAN CREATIVE COLLABORATORY HOW TO#
Even though it can appear daunting or ambiguous, learning how to research is a valuable skill, and, along with forging partnerships with top faculty, can be rewarding for every student. Research on entrepreneurship and global competitiveness are just a couple of areas that could potentially enhance an MBA student’s experience here at UNC Kenan-Flagler. Although rare, it is wonderful when master’s students get involved in one of the research projects in some way, and there are many opportunities to get involved. While typically master’s students do not get involved in research, there has always been a relationship between the Kenan Institute and certain MBA students. Many students probably don’t know how easy it is to get involved with current research, and that it will be very rewarding for both parties. Most people equate research with tenured professors and the occasional PhD student. In terms of research, these two organizations have historically had very little to do with one another. The Institute is already successful in its current research areas, but can elevate this success even further by leveraging academic research that is happening at the business school. This automatically elevates some of the research that is happening at the Institute and allows for a translation into policy and practice that helps advance the its mission. These senior faculty are already sitting over doctoral students and their dissertations, and they are going to help bring the two together in this way. Lundblad is an example of this, and there will be more crossover in the future. Greg Brown, Kenan Institute Director, is engaging some of the senior faculty here at the business school and bringing them over to the Institute. Creating greater degrees of awareness is something that will naturally guide some students in that direction, and additionally, Dr. Lundblad, a student’s research is guided by his or her own desires and passions, but there are things going on right now that many PhD students will potentially be interested in, such as entrepreneurial efforts, which is an elevated focus at the Institute. What does a typical student research? According to Dr. Engaging doctoral students in research being done at the Kenan Institute will foster improved academics as these students take the latest research and incorporate it into their own teaching. His mission is to be a bridge between the two entities and promote the link between research and academics, ideally having a greater impact on both. Lundblad is serving a dual role here at the business school, as he is now also serving as the Associate Dean for the Doctoral Program. Christian Lundblad on his new position as Director of Research at the Kenan Institute. On behalf of the Kenan Institute of Private Enterprise, in conjunction with the UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School, I’d like to congratulate Dr.
