At Northeastern, the pursuit of ideas is supported by a research mission grounded in discovering solutions to the grand challenges of our time, with a focus on health, security, and sustainability.
Our use-inspired approach gives purpose to knowledge-creation, growing out of the university’s culture of engagement with the world. It’s a culture built on collaboration, a key to productive research.
And, while we focus on those three global imperatives, our research enterprise is broad and deep, ranging across disciplines to create new knowledge in science and technology, the social sciences, and the arts and humanities.
