Description
A public university with 4000 business majors instituted a professional readiness program requiring students to take part in engagement activities to acquire business skills. A research consultation with the business librarian became an option for an upper-level engagement in critical thinking. This talk will present on the genesis and growth of the partnership (including data on students impacted), changes made to improve access to research consultations, and changes made to the research consultation to enhance the experience and encourage student success.
