Madison Academic Research Tutorials

Madison Academic Research Tutorials 

Madison Academic Research Tutorials (MARTs) provide students with in-depth research experience. A MART is a faculty-led small tutorial, where a group of two to three students explores a topic of interest. Students register for MC 410 for 1-2 credits with weekly meetings to be determined by faculty and student availability. 

The small size of the tutorials is designed to develop research-related skills that empower students to explore and engage in research opportunities both within the college and at MSU.
