Business, Industry, and Government neighbors
To our Business, Industry, and Government neighbors, think of the concept: Iron sharpens iron! That’s what the Division of Research (DR) offers through our Office of Research Industry and Business Partnerships – an opportunity to collaborate on research, access specialized equipment, secure premier campus office locations, and more.
Faculty, Students and Future Inventors
To our Faculty, Students and Future Inventors – If you’ve got that next big idea, or perhaps you have an invention or created intellectual property that needs protecting, you’ll want to tap into the DR’s Innovation & IP Protection Office. Here we’ll help you navigate the process and bring your ideas and inventions to market. Can you say, “Impact!?!”
