These days, undergraduates are busier than ever. Most make time for part-time work, volunteering, and extracurricular activities on top of their coursework. We believe that important career-related skills are being developed during all of these experiences.

Our research is aimed at improving what we know about the skills that university students develop while completing their degree.

But we're not just interested in gathering data. All of our studies have been set up with the intention of helping undergraduates to better understand their skills and how to effectively communicate about them when applying for jobs or other higher education programs.




Feel free to explore the research projects and other opportunities at Brock that
are designed to help students make connections between their university experiences
and the transferable
skills that employers are looking for.
