Research
and scholarly activity is a core part of Cal Poly’s
mission. The processes of inquiry and discovery are
fundamental to higher education. As faculty engage
in their own research and creative activity they continually
update their knowledge and skills and renew their
classroom teaching. When students have the opportunity
to participate in research and other forms of scholarship,
critical and analytical thinking is enhanced, and
their innate curiosity is piqued and their talents
are cultivated.
As a polytechnic
university, we bring a wide range of resources to
the applied research arena, from exceptionally qualified
faculty, to talented students and specialized facilities.
Our faculty engage in a broad variety of sponsored
projects in applied research and development, consulting,
product testing, analytical testing, curriculum design
and development, and community service, across all
disciplinary areas.
