Our mission
The faculty student experience is paramount at UW Bothell and due to the nature of being a primarily undergraduate institution, faculty have competing priorities and limited time. Therefore, UW Bothell’s Office of Research offers support to advance their research agenda and maximize their community impact while creating conditions for faculty student connections.

If you are looking for ways to enhance your education, pad your resume, or just be a part of amazing projects, we recommend getting involved with research! Freshman and first-year transfer students are encouraged to get involved the first quarter they arrive. Research can help students develop new skills and passions, lead to awards and scholarships, and improve learning in the classroom.
Visit the Undergraduate Research pages.

The UW Bothell Herbarium provides a critical authoritative record of plants occurring in the campus wetland and the greater North Creek Basin. As the vegetation changes through time in the wetland it will form a reliable record to help us and future researchers understand biological and habitat change in one of our regions’ preeminent floodplain restoration projects.
In 2016, the Office of Research began supporting the herbarium efforts. By teaming up with the Burke Herbarium (UW Seattle), the collection will be accessible online in late 2017. Please contact Sarah Verlinde (
severlin@uw.edu) if you’re interested in donating, volunteering, studying, or taking a tour.
The University of Washington Bothell is one of the only universities in the area offering the unique feature of a clean room. A clean room has low levels of environmental pollutants such as dust, airborne microbes, aerosol particles, and chemical vapors - making it vital to manufacturing. At UW Bothell, you'll find many of our electrical engineering undergraduates, graduates, and certificate students in the clean room, learning with hands-on training in a real-world work setting.
