What is a Peer Research Adviser?
Need help finding information for a business plan or another business paper/project?
We have a team of students who can help you utilize business information effectively, including data not available via a "regular" Google search. They are called Peer Research Advisers (PRAs). PRAs are trained to help you navigate research taking advantage of specialized resources in marketing, operations, management, and finance.
PRAs can also help you with:
- Finding articles on business topics
- Navigating credible resources for business plan research
- Evaluating the quality of the sources you find online
- Citing sources in APA
If you are tackling research with a faculty adviser or in an upper level course, consider meeting with a Business Librarian.
