Research that drives big solutions and innovations

At Oregon State our research and innovation drives economic, workforce and community development to fuel a thriving world. The Division of Research and Innovation collaborates with faculty researchers, students and industry leaders in transdisciplinary teams across the sciences, engineering, arts, social sciences and humanities to create equitable, sustainable prosperity in Oregon, across the U.S. and beyond.

At the Division of Research and Innovation, we continue to prioritize our four research focus areas for investment and growth, with artificial intelligence, research computing and data sciences underpinning much of our work in climate science, clean energy, robotics, and integrated health and biotechnology. We look forward to continuing to advance research and innovation at OSU—Oregon’s research university.
