Databases for Online Research

Although students are working from home, there are many ways that students can develop original research projects, using online databases and datasets.  The Office of Student Research is creating a database, searchable so  that students can use to locate data.

You can select “filter” to find databases that match certain criteria. For example, if you only want to look at health data or databases, you would

(1)Select “filter” from the top left corner of the database window;
(2) Select “category” from the field menu;
(3)Select “Health” from the “select an option” menu.

As you are making your selection(s), you should see the visible items begin to adjust to your criteria.

If you have not already done so, please check out the starter guide for searching for scientific literature and public datasets.

Transitioning to Online Courses

While many Roosevelt students have taken an occasional course online, few are accustomed to a fully-online mode. Roosevelt PsyD student Victoria Limon made this transition when she began her master’s degree. She has drawn from her own experience, as well as gathering tips from student & faculty forums, to create a guide to help RU students making the transition.
