Research Experience Program (REP):

The Miller College of Business at Ball State University requires each student enrolled in Principles of Marketing (MKG 300) and/or Managing Behavior in Organizations (MGT 300) and some MBA-level courses to participate in the Research Experience Program (REP). The purpose of the REP is to provide exposure to the process by which business knowledge is developed and to enhance students appreciation of the nature and role of research topics and methods. In the REP, students have the opportunity to experience research first-hand, either as a participant in a research project with a specific research question or as a reviewer of recent research.
