Approximately 40 faculty lead active research initiatives, ranging from laboratory collaborations in the life and health sciences to trend setting STEM education projects in the local high school systems. Funded research is an excellent way for graduate students to build relationships with senior faculty and researchers and add depth to their university experience.
School of Engineering and Technology faculty currently hold more than $12 million in external research funding, including $10.26 million in new awards in 2009-2010, the 4th largest award portfolio on the IUPUI campus.
