Students Engagement

UNDERGRADUATE STUDENT ENGAGEMENT

The Family Business Histories (FBH) research project has identified various roles for undergraduate students to allow for an experiential learning experience for students in the area of research. In addition to being an interdisciplinary public history project, FBH also falls at the intersection of academia and the private sector. This unique setup allows for a variety of roles where students from different academic backgrounds and interests get to contribute with their respective skills in areas such as: research and writing, archival research, database development and data management, graphic design, website development, social media content creation. 

A unique role is designed for each student to develop their existing skill sets, in addition to allowing them to explore other areas of personal interests in line with their anticipated career goals. Students are given a unique opportunity to work closely with the project team from NYUAD and other partners and collaborators, to achieve the final vision of the respective research outcomes.
