Office of Research Support

Our faculty has earned a strong reputation for research and publication in areas critical to improving the quality of individuals, communities, the environment and the world. Many faculty members have studied at some of the most prestigious research centers in North America, and they bring to UW Bothell a continuing dedication to fostering new scholarship and discovery.

The Office of Research Support (ORS) helps faculty identify and pursue grant opportunities that generate collaborative and interdisciplinary research projects, engage students in field work and research activities, and create symposia that contribute to the intellectual vitality of the campus.

Under the guidance of Carolyn Brennan, the ORS has built a dynamic infrastructure that fully supports faculty in expanding the scope of their scholarship.
