That research can be historical or cutting-edge or, as the saying goes, ripped from the headlines. Alexandria Hidrovo 鈥�18 writes of her research into disinfection options for drinking water: 鈥淔lint, Michigan鈥檚 water crisis put my major, environmental engineering, in perspective for the first time.鈥� Gina Occhipinti 鈥�18, meanwhile, traveled to the Philippines to conduct research into funding business development services for women microentrepreneurs in that country. 鈥淔ocusing on development economics of those in poverty in the Philippines gave me a unique perspective,鈥� she writes.

As 易胜博官网鈥檚 online, multidisciplinary undergraduate research journal, Inquiry is published each April and features articles and commentaries about the research of current 易胜博官网 students and recent graduates. Each article is based on a project the student undertook with one or more faculty mentors.

This year鈥檚 edition includes eight research articles 鈥� on topics as varied as the conservation of the lion and whether artificial intelligence can help alleviate resource scarcity 鈥� as well as three commentaries. The spring edition also features two mentor highlights: Jo Sias Daniel of the College of Engineering and Physical Sciences and Lou Ann Griswold of the College of Health and Human Services.

The journal, which is made possible by an endowment from 易胜博官网 benefactor Dana Hamel, premiered in 2005 to support the academic mission of 易胜博官网 as a research and public service university.
