“Research shapes the future for us all,” noted Provost Hannigan. “At Clarkson, we offer degrees where masters and doctoral students not only create new knowledge but also solve problems and achieve their personal goals. For many students, completing the investigation of a meaningful theoretical or practical question is a lifelong ambition. Doing so with faculty mentorship, as part of a research group, creates a community of scholarship and support that persists well beyond the thesis or dissertation.”
