Bernadette McFadden ’07 is working as a research associate at  the Institute of Medicine in Washington, D.C. She earned her master of science degree in applied social research degree from Trinity College Dublin, Ireland, in February after completing her coursework in September.

McFadden’s research in Ireland was financed by a Mitchell scholarship. She was one of 12 Americans to receive the scholarship, which is awarded for academics, leadership and community service.

While living in Dublin, McFadden said her coursework built on foundations she established at Dickinson—statistical methods and qualitative research.
"The Mitchell scholarship program excels at encouraging its scholars to engage in the community," said McFadden, who also received a Fulbright but declined it to accept the Mitchell grant. "The Mitchell scholarship program combined with my experiences at Dickinson and in Carlisle enabled me to pursue my interests, both professionally and personally."
