Each year, Undergraduate students in the Faculty of Public Affairs have the opportunity to pursue a summer research project of their choice under the guidance of a Carleton faculty member through the Carleton University Research Opportunity Program<\/a> (CUROP).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year, one of the successful applicants was Carleton Bachelor of Public Affairs and Policy Management (BPAPM) student, Maeghan Macpherson, whose project was supervised by the Department of Law and Legal Studies’ Professor and Associate Chair, Stacy Douglas<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor Douglas notes that \u201cCUROP is an excellent program for keen students to try their hand at primary research. It is the best way to put your academic training to use and to see what intellectual work can do in the world. I am so proud of Maeghan and her project; it shows how academic research can contribute to community efforts to make lives better.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Programs like these highlight students’ abilities to take part in programs outside of their area of study, much like how students can take law courses without needing to be in a Law program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
