For Students

Are you a student interested in highlighting your work or being connected to current projects? Being part of a research project can be a great way to serve your local community, make connections, and gain academic credit for your degree. Your research will answer practical needs and further current knowledge about education in rural and Indigenous communities in Manitoba and beyond.

Ways to Get Started:

1

Check our current listings for Research Assistant positions. These positions are paid and are not for course credit. Working as a research assistant is a great way to get started in the world of research. BRANDON-U-JOBS
