Gies Business Research Lab

Established in January 2020, our college-wide behavioral research lab provides researchers with access to research participants, both students and non-students, dedicated research and participant management systems, study implementation support, and updated lab space.  

Our priority at the Gies Business Research Lab (GBRL)  is to collaboratively facilitate as many behavioral projects as possible, fostering an environment that supports innovation in study design and methods. GBRL is focused on responding to the emerging needs of Gies researchers and providing tangible support and structure that leads to demonstrable excellence in data collection, analysis, and publication.  

Annually, Gies Business Research Lab (GBRL) assisted over 50 college researchers in running nearly 90 studies and filling nearly 17,000 participant time slots.
