Meet Danielle,
She is an Emergency Health Services and Sociology major and McNair Scholar.
Danielle’s research focuses on the receptiveness of the adult diabetic population to community paramedicine or similar community-based healthcare services. Ultimately, she would like to work for an organization that involves itself with disaster relief and humanitarian efforts both domestically and internationally.
Dear UMBC Student,
I’m a doctoral candidate in the Graduate School of Education at the University of Pennsylvania. My dissertation explores potential influences that faculty-mentored undergraduate research has on student engagement and student academic achievement.
I understand you may be a student who previously conducted research with a UMBC faculty-mentor. If so, I would like to have a conversation with you about your faculty-mentored research past experience as part of my dissertation study. The commitment involves a one (1) hour individual interview with me this fall.
If this sounds interesting to you, please let me know as soon as possible. I am glad to answer questions that you may have about the interview and my dissertation study. All replies will be confidential. I look forward to hearing from you and thanks for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Michael Nichols
