When the Brothers of the Christian Schools founded La Salle College in 1863, they looked to their founder and the universal patron saint of educators, for inspiration and guidance. Beginning with this act of faith, La Salle became the first institution of higher education in the world to bear the name of St. John Baptist de La Salle.
Those who accept the challenge of a Lasallian education seek not only to exercise the mind, but to inculcate a love of learning, creativity, a sense of self, and an ability to discern relationships and possibilities where none are obvious. Our love of teaching and learning is manifested in opportunities for students, faculty, administrators, and staff to become reflective, discerning persons. La Salle aspires to fully awaken and ripen our intellectual, spiritual, emotional, ethical, social, and physical capacities.
In collaboration with the La Salle School of Business, the DLSI co-sponsors Research Methods Labs (RMLs) that highlight a quantitative or qualitative method. Research Methods Labs introduce (or refresh) key research methods not only to offer faculty, staff, and graduate students additional options for conducting their own research, but also to provide additional alternatives for our students in methods courses. RMLs are held 1-2 times per semester
