Public Impact Research

From developing new medications and understanding environmental challenges to examining disparities in education access and economic development, public impact research is focused on improving our communities. Land-grant universities — like OSU — were founded specifically to benefit the public and we are doing that through research.
OSU is committed to collaborative research with communities that will solve problems and improve everyday life.
