Office for Research

With research a fundamental part of the university's mission, our office aims to further the reach of Rutgers research and its impact on communities.

Leading with Stride

The year 2021 put us to the test, and we met its challenges as one united and committed team leading Rutgers Research with our mission in sight. Get a glimpse into the top five successes from each of our major business units during 2021 in our inaugural High Five! Report.

The Office for Research provides a pipeline of services across Rutgers to drive and support faculty research and strategically leads the university's economic development activities. 

Our cutting-edge research, sponsored by federal and state agencies, and increasingly by corporations and foundations, contributes to the medical, environmental, social and cultural well-being of the state. By transforming Rutgers research into products, services and partnerships, we help New Jersey’s economy grow.

Our Administrative Units
