Welcome to BC's Research Team!
It is my strongly held belief that learning is the right of all, regardless of education, background, professional experience, and so on. Conducting research is an extension of learning where we bring new learning opportunities to the world for all to see. BCResearch is a chance to act on that belief by inviting anyone, and I do mean anyone, to take part.
​
The only requirement is passion.
​
So I am inviting all of you apply to complete a research project. Here's what the process looks like.
​
1. Complete the form in the link below.
2. I'll reach out to discuss the project further.
3. Once the project appears viable, I will write grant applications on your behalf. All awarded grants will only be used to finance your research project.
4. Pending approved financing (either through BC or an outside grant), I will write a research proposal on your behalf and submit it to a review board for approval, if neccessary.
5. Pending approval, the project will begin and we will monitor over time.
6. Once enough data have been collected, I will draft the research paper, poster, etc. Don't worry! As the primary researcher, you'll still get first author credit!
7. The last step will be submit drafts to the relevant journals, poster applications, etc.
​
And I will be there to offer guidance for every step. I really mean that, even if it's step one. Need help filling out the form? Reach out! Don't even know where to begin? Reach out!
​
Please note, if your project is approved, it will require personal investment to complete, including your personal time. That said, some time will be approved to work on the project during regular work hours.
​
We're also accepting research that's already been completed (such as for a masters thesis) if you're looking to get it published!
​
Here's hoping to hear from everyone!
