Our Mission

The development, application and dissemination of new knowledge (often lumped together under the term "Research") are key functions of the College of Engineering and Physical Sciences. This web page serves as a locus for finding information related to research activities in the College as well as a place to find links to College and University research policies and procedures.

 

Sincerely,

Collaborate With Colleagues

Finding the right research collaborators and partnering with counterparts can be a game-changer for your research. While working with research collaborators from different fields offers a blend of unique perspectives, it also allows access to specialized equipment, funding opportunities, and research facilities that would not otherwise be possible. Benefits of research collaboration include:

• Comprehensive, High-Quality Research
• Improved Chance of Publication
• Increase in Peer Networking
• Fostering of Cross-Discplinary Understanding

Despite the many benefits and growing collaborative research trends, finding the right partners or research collaborators can be a challenge. Visit our Collaborate With Colleagues webpage to start collaborating with your colleagues!
