SEED Student Research on Sustainable Business

At the SEED Institute, we believe that the most powerful learning happens when students roll up their sleeves and step into real‑world challenges. That is why the SEED Student Research on Sustainable Business program gives Regis students the chance to work side‑by‑side with expert faculty on bold, solutions‑driven research that confronts today’s greatest global issues – climate change, poverty, equity, and the ethical use of emerging technologies.

This is not research for the sake of research. it is about creating change.

Through SEED, students receive mentorship and early-stage funding to pursue projects aligned with the United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals and top risks identified by the World Economic Forum. Their findings do not end up tucked away on a shelf-they have the potential to influence business practices, shape policy conversations, and spark meaningful social transformation.

Along the way, students gain something far more valuable than a line on their résumé. They build confidence. They sharpen analytical and leadership skills. They form lasting mentorship relationships that open doors to competitive careers and graduate programs. As one past participant shared:

“The SEED program has opened doors for me to explore new research areas, work with inspiring professors, and grow both personally and professionally.”

This is the kind if growth that changes a student's life-and, ultimately, the world they go on to lead.
