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.

We are proud of our faculty and the knowledge they generate through their ongoing research. Learn more about the projects and discoveries of UW Bothell principal investigators in the "Research in Action" video profiles below.
