Faculty-Student Research Projects

At Antioch University New England students have the opportunity to work with faculty on various consulting projects. These projects allow students to think dynamically and put theory into action. Many students find these research assistantships to be vital to their AUNE experience. The following is a sampling of projects that students and faculty have jointly worked on over the past several years.
