This scholarship takes many forms, from basic discovery that fuels future advances, to applied problem solving that meets the challenges facing our environment, but also to engaged work that involves a reciprocal, collaborative relationship between our scholars and an organization outside Brown. Each type of scholarship — basic, applied and engaged — is important and essential for IBES to meet its goals.
IBES students, staff and faculty are involved in a wide variety of engaged scholarship activities, at a local, national and international level.
