Fund to Enhance Graduate Research and Creative Activity

In giving to support graduate research and creative activity, you are investing in the future – by expanding the bounds of knowledge and culture and equipping students to lead in a world that thrives on discovery and innovation.

Ohio University graduate students are advancing the frontiers of art and culture through their research and creative activities. They need supplies, equipment, travel to archives, access to internships, and to present their results at professional conferences and exhibitions. Your investment allows these talented students to enhance their careers and generate knowledge that changes the world. 

Recent work by Ohio University graduate students includes remediating acid mine drainage, linking vaping to social media influences, assisting Arabic speakers in learning English, preventing corrosion in pipelines, revealing the limits of symmetry in atomic nuclei, and understanding revolutionary movements through street art. In completing these studies and others like them, our students open new vistas of knowledge while preparing themselves for careers at the forefront of their disciplines.
