Development

The challenges of our time demand innovation and progress in science and technology. Success depends on the sharing of vital resources. Collaborative research advances both academia and industry by combining inspired ideas with capital, expertise, and technology. Our partnerships with businesses and government agencies have advanced critical work in engineering, biological and environmental sciences, restoration ecology, and alternative energy development.

We provide industry and agencies with affordable access to our laboratory and experimental facilities, and to faculty and researchers who are distinguished in their field. In return, our students develop valuable professional skills with access to deadline-driven,real-world projects. They immediately become productive members of the technical workforce upon graduation.

Please consider how a partnership with the College of Engineering, Forestry, and Natural Sciences (CEFNS) can benefit your objectives. By working together we can create a world of opportunity.
