Both its curriculum and university-affiliated think tanks should provide research experience for students, as each has advantages of its own. Thought tanks offer useful, multidisciplinary chances to solve real-world issues, cooperate with experts, and create networks, curriculum-based research guarantees an organised, fundamental understanding of methodology. Combining the two methods improves students' knowledge, abilities, and preparedness for the workforce.

From anywhere you can get to conduct an authentic research in the lights of your supervisor is well and good. My own suggestion.
