This summer, our student-led team (Tashi Dorji, Sandra Rafeh, and Caroline Pietroski, all third-year undergraduate students in Economics) were hired by the New Brunswick Institute for Research, Data, and Training (NB-IRDT) to participate as student researchers in the 2021 Pathways to Professions (P2P) program and comprise the BoostNB team for the summer of 2021. P2P is a 13-week experiential learning program developed by NB-IRDT that allows post-secondary students to work as part of a research team while attending sessions on research methods and job readiness skills.
