Student Research
Students/Parents-
Please check into the following top SIX global health challenges and pick one topic to start your data gathering. Once, we have enough understanding of the problem and current research being done by various agencies, we can take the next steps. You need to come prepared with your topic of interest on Monday (10/28/20) at 7 PM CST. This is a wonderful opportunity to get involved with. It is all new for all of us but with right amount of effort and good direction, you will be extremely successful.
