Research Opportunities

Research Opportunities at Emmanuel are fasten-your-seatbelt explorations into a universe of "Why?" and "What If?" with the potential to make a powerful impact in peoples' lives. At Emmanuel College, meaningful work is being done in many disciplines across the board. Internship programs and faculty/student projects in the healthcare and medical fields provide Emmanuel College undergraduates the kind of access and resources usually reserved for graduate programs at large research universities.

Forum Ravel and Casey Vallot spent two and a half years working with Dr. Josef Kurtz, Assistant Professor of Biology, on bone marrow transplant research at world-renowned Massachusetts General Hospital. "These students," says Dr. Kurtz, "are helping me with research in a highly-specialized field. Very few people in this world will understand the nuances of the final presentation of that work. Two of them are undergraduates here at Emmanuel."
