Overview
The research project allows you to track and organize research projects and store relevant documents and data, and collaborate with key stakeholders like peers, faculty, and teaching assistants. By creating a consistent structure to be followed by all peers, the project ensures that all bases are covered, and no steps are missed during the preparation and submission of the research project.
