The RRC is committed to assisting the professional development of academics, graduates, and students interested in youth resilience and researching youth. The purpose of onsite research opportunities is to provide participants with challenging work experience, under the guidance and supervision of researchers with extensive knowledge of youth resilience and mixed research methods. Each opportunity is tailored around the existing work of the RRC and the applicant’s interests. Research opportunities normally result in publications (see the various projects and publications on our website for more details).
There are no research opportunities available at this time but please check back in the future.
