ABOUT:
The Division of Applied Research has 4 focus areas + we support RDP’s Faculty-Led Research across all research disciplines. The 4 focus areas include: Manufacturing & Advanced Manufacturing; Healthcare & Health Technology; Energy Innovation; Social Innovation. Applied Research thrives when technology, creativity, arts, science, and humanities synergize to co-create solutions for communities and individuals to live better, together. Innovative ecosystems benefit when multidisciplinary teams come together to grapple with ideas, think through complex problems, and garner best possible solutions.
