This lab is designed to meet the needs of faculty in a controlled environment, bringing faculty together with similar interests and research goals with help to provide research support, assist in the collection of data, and help students gain an understanding and appreciation for research processes. The lab is available to College of Business faculty and graduate students that use human subjects for their research.
