This article is based on a survey of students enrolled in a social service work diploma program, though unfortunately there is no link to the study. It documents advantages of encouraging students to engage in research, as seem from the students' perspectives, and also outlines some barriers (not surprisingly, these include lack of time and funding). The authors suggest sharing opportunities "far and wide", making time in their academic schedule, help building student research skills, and ensure training and support is available in the research positions.
