Research
Welcome to the research pages for the College of Science. Our research enterprise is strong and growing, and involves theory, field programs, laboratory work, exploration, and numerical simulation and experimentation. Our faculty are among the world leaders probing the frontiers of modern science, contributing to vital discovery in life sciences, environmental prediction, homeland security, and basic understanding of our world and universe. Whether you are an undergraduate looking for undergraduate research opportunities, graduate student research, a post-doctoral position or establishing a research collaboration, we hope that these pages and their links give the full flavor of the wide array of projects going on in the College of Science.
Faculty Research Development Help
There are a number of resources available for faculty in preparing proposals and administering research projects available at the Office of Sponsored Programs.
Research Programs
A listing of our research centers, departmental research links, and laboratories.
Supercomputing Center
The College of Science maintains a small supercomputing center that enables our scientists to prepare codes for execution at national labs or to run small production codes for innovative research.
Shared Research instrumentation Facility
The Shared Research Instrumentation Facility (SRIF) provides state-of-the-art, high-tech analytical instruments for conducting applied scientific research in the chemical and biochemical fields. SRIF's selection of computer-controlled equipment is of the same high caliber as those found in advanced commercial and governmental laboratories. Use of the equipment is open to students, faculty, and staff at GMU by arrangement with the SRIF lab manager.
