Research Committee

Statement of Purpose:

The Research Committee encourages MCMLA chapter members to engage in research activities by providing mentorship and support. The Committee advertises the availability of an annual award for the best paper and best poster that is presented at the annual chapter meeting. The judging of the work is performed by committee members based on published criteria. In order to cultivate the research process, the committee’s website provides links to resources, classes, services and committee business as a way to improve the knowledge and skills needed to perform and present research.
