Student Research

Throughout their tenure at CCT, students explore a number of research problems and present their finding through multiple mediums.  Our classes encourage students to present their findings through academic papers, websites, videos, and other forms of multimedia content. Students are able to learn about the benefits of each medium and learn to present an argument in multiple formats. 

Below you will find examples of our students work.
