Research

 

With a culture of rigorous inquiry and a commitment to interdisciplinary research and learning, the University is a place where scholars break new ground every day. Our faculty conduct field-defining research and pursue innovative solutions to the world’s most complex challenges. Their work expands the idea of what’s possible while having real-world impact. The Office of the Provost works with partners across the University to create opportunities for faculty to pioneer research and provide the resources they need to do their best work.
