Notice Regarding External Research Requests
As of 24 July 2025, Marine Corps University is no longer accepting new requests from external researchers to conduct research involving MCU students, faculty, staff, facilities, or data. The term "external researcher" extends to individuals and groups outside of the DOD. This change applies to all external research activities, including those requiring Institutional Review Board (IRB) review and coordination through MCU’s Director of Institutional Research, Assessment, and Planning.
DOD researchers who wish to conduct research involving MCU students, faculty, staff, facilities, or data should contact Andrea Hamlen-Ridgely, Director of Institutional Research, Assessment, and Planning:

We appreciate your understanding and thank you for your interest in collaborating with MCU.
