Researcher's Guide

Research and scholarly activities at NAU encompass an impressive array of projects over an incredibly diverse range of topics. In fiscal year 2006, NAU’s research activities spanned over 50 departments and research centers, and generated $58 million in new external grants and contracts. In a time of declining state support, these dollars are vital to our growth and the continuance of a high standard of academic and research-oriented education. We are deeply committed to supporting your pursuit of discovery, innovation, scholarship, and creativity.
