UWest Student Research Groups
In the spirit of fostering new and evolving scholarship techniques in the digital age, PhD students at University of the West have formed Student Research Groups (SRG). These groups are composed of students who are engaged in dissertation research and writing in order to earn their doctorate. Organized and mentored by Dr. Lewis Lancaster, UC Berkeley Emeritus and Research Professor of UWest, each group is comprised of students whose dissertation topics are closely related. As they compile data, bibliographies etc. they are also building websites in order to organize their efforts and also share resources and sources of scholarship which might aid others out in the world who are researching and studying related subjects.
