Research articles describe research and creative projects in all disciplines and are authored by UNH undergraduates or recent graduates in collaboration with Inquiry editors. They should not exceed 3000 words (excluding bibliography). These articles are based on independent research projects conducted while the author was an undergraduate at UNH. Because of the relatively short length and general audience of research articles, their authors often choose to narrow or refocus their original text. The research experience is held to be as important as research results.
