COMMUNITY-ENGAGED RESEARCH COURSE
The Community-Engaged Research Course, piloted in the Fall of 2019 at Huston-Tillotson University, prioritized equity in research through a
unique program where students learned how to apply research methods and data analysis to local organizations focused on social impact.
As a result of the pilot, 16 students gained skills in research methods which they applied to nonprofit research projects and earned $2500 stipends to support the time they invest in independent research projects, 5 nonprofit organizations received insight on their organizations through equity-focused student research, and 1 student team of four received $10,000 to continue conducting research with their nonprofit organization beyond the Fall 2019 semester. The Community-Engaged Research Course will return to Huston-Tillotson University in the Spring of 2021 and will be launched at Texas State University in the Fall of 2021.
