Summary
While there has been much discussion around the role of academics and practitioners, there has been a surprising absence of how undergraduate students play an important role in the nexus of research, teaching, and impact. The chapter describes six vignettes from Australia, Malaysia, the UK, and the US to show how programs and activities can provide research training, transferable skills, and status for undergraduate students, as well as valuable insights for people, organizations, society, and the environment. The chapter explains how students can use research for academic and practical impact. The examples also demonstrate how high-quality undergraduate research within business schools can productively inform thinking, behavior, and decision making outside of universities.
