Creative Inquiry

Every Clemson student has the opportunity to begin a research project with faculty support and University resources through Creative Inquiry.

Conduct groundbreaking research — even during your undergraduate years

“When I got [to the Florida Keys] at the beginning of the summer, I was someone who was studying marine biology. The work that we’ve done here and the things we’ve discovered have made me realize that I’m more than a student. I’m a marine biologist, and I’m a scientist. This isn’t just what I’m doing: It’s who I am.”
