Collaboration. Risk-taking. Enterprising.
Big ideas that promote novel approaches.
The Office of Research supports the Polytechnic research enterprise as the faculty, staff and students seek to solve problems and address grand challenges. The Polytechnic fosters a culture of interdisciplinary collaboration, risk-taking, and diversity that encourages big ideas and novel approaches.
By leveraging our strength in industry experience and applied or “use-inspired” research, the Polytechnic research enterprise has a strong foundation to positively impact local as well as global communities with industry, government, and non-profit partners alike.
Our researchers created five comprehensive research impact areas that stimulate multi-disciplinary collaboration through socio-technical approaches to provide innovative and use-inspired solutions.
