<p>This page has some interesting information on Mudd’s perspective on research:</p>

<p>There is a lot of hands on work at Mudd – when we visited in the summer we saw students working on building a robot, and at accepted students day we saw some students who had done their ‘clinical’ project on a device related to a government project related to collection of dark matter (they were assigned the job of designing an improvement to a device used as part of the project, and also prototyped the device). It was VERY cool. They have a lot of good relationships with corporations that give them real-world projects to work on, too. And… there are no grad students to hog the work and glory at Mudd.</p>
