From storm-chasing drones to improvements in agriculture and disease-fighting medicines, OSU connects you to a world of cutting-edge research with top-rated faculty and resources.

Knowledge that improves lives and strengthens communities

Science, engineering and humanities research takes place in every college on our campuses, and our Center for Health Sciences in Tulsa. Oklahoma State research is in lock-step with its land-grant legacy. Research at OSU, a Carnegie R1 research university, is relevant, accessible and beneficial — whether it’s exploring basic scientific questions or applied concepts that directly impact lives.

What does a scientist really do?

The OSU research community is broad and tight-knit. Our faculty members have the opportunity to explain why their research matters in a casual, face-to-face setting with the local community each month at OSU Research On Tap. This event allows people to learn about research happening at OSU.

Home to respected faculty, impactful research

Our researchers create treatments for disease, develop technologies to improve lives, explore natural ecosystems and microscopic organisms, and advance many other areas. At the same time, their talents include teaching the next generation of scientists, engineers and scholars.

Guidance in a world of research administration

The Office of the Vice President for Research helps faculty focus on their work with assistance complying with rules and regulations and provides resources for success.

Driving progress through innovation

OSU is maximizing the impact of research excellence through groundbreaking transdisciplinary institutes, each driving innovation and expertise in their fields of aerospace and advanced mobility, energy and human nutrition and performance. These institutes are at the forefront of applied research and development — turning their discoveries into transformative products and services and building strong relationships with industry leaders — all for the benefit of society.
