Do I need a research mentor if I plan on conducting secondary research?
Hello! My name is Sanvhi and I am a rising junior. This summer and in the following months, I plan on conducting secondary research on the connection between architecture and domestic violence in India, exploring how spaces can impact the increase or decrease in violence taking place. To be honest, I am not completely sure how having a mentor works. In my research about it, I learned that I would assist them with their findings, and others different stories. I have heard that it is best to have a mentor for research, but since my research is not something I believe I can do with primary data I have gathered, I am not sure if I need one. If I did have one, I honestly am not sure what we would be able to discuss, or how they would be able to help me. Please let me know what you think. Thank you!
How would I know if I'll be content in the future with the major/program I choose ?
Tech has my attention, but how can i know what i want to excess in without having much experience in the field. #fall25
