Faculty Research
The faculty at Roanoke College are active scholars and encourage undergraduate students to do research and creative work. Sometimes, students get involved as research assistants in a faculty member's research program. Other times, student-driven research projects are supported by the guidance of a faculty mentor. The best way to find a match is to start talking with professors in your area of interest. You can also email the Director of Undergraduate Research at research@roanoke.edu for advice.
