Research Projects

Some Current Research Projects in the College of Technology

Overview

Research projects within the College of Technology reflect one or more of the areas of technology or consumer merchandising and human development that we teach. In this way, our research is well integrated with our teaching. Students then gain the advantage of learning from faculty members who are working on the cutting edge of their fields.

Since research projects usually reflect grants from funding agencies, these projects may change from time to time according to the funding that is granted by these agencies. However, the field of interest for a given faculty member is usually fairly constant. To find out more about the field of research and interest for a given faculty member, please consult their personal profile in the faculty section of our web site.
