The mission of the Research and Business Development Center (RBDC) is to forge university students and clients to produce trusted results and professional growth through a value-added approach. The RBDC is focused on helping our clients through value-added research. Clients help university students gain experience and build their resume. Having worked with over 300 clients on over 900 projects, the RBDC offers a wide variety of projects to meet clients’ individual needs by facilitating strategic decision-making. Research projects are completed by student teams overseen by RBDC staff with years of business experience and other mentors including university professors. Our cross-disciplinary teams are staffed with university students studying a range of topics like statistics and math, business, marketing, supply chain, economics, accounting, industrial and organizational psychology, and communications. Together the students provide clients documented research and analysis to help meet their individual needs. Projects are done on a tri-annual basis. The 13-week projects start in January, April, and September. Clients are charged a reasonable administrative fee for the service. The RBDC is limited in the number of projects that it can accept, so reach out now to ensure your project can be completed.
