Help OHIO students solve real-world problems

Your gift expands opportunities for OHIO students to engage in research and creative projects, providing impactful experiential learning experiences.

Did you know that over the last decade, the number of Ohio University undergraduate students involved in research, scholarship and creative activity has tripled?

All gifts matched up to $7,500!

Elite Research, LLC, a global provider of research design, program evaluation, and statistical consulting, is generously providing a 1:1 match, up to $7,500 for gifts designated to the Fund for Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity. Dr. Rene Paulson '99, President of Elite Research, LLC and Senior Statistician, is committed to supporting undergraduate research and creative activity because she believes in the power of these experiences to expand and create new opportunities for our students and the capacity of research to influence change in the world. Originally, a student in the Scripps J-School, Dr. Paulson graduated with a BA in Psychology from the College of Arts and Sciences, went on to pursue her Ph.D. in Experimental Psychology in Texas, and founded Elite Research, LLC in 2004 where they use their science backgrounds to empower other researchers to create change in the world.

 

We need your support to provide necessary funding for the growing number of students participating in research!

Why are so many OHIO undergraduates getting involved in research and creative activity? It’s a great way for students to gain a deeper understanding of their major, participate in hands-on learning experiences outside of the classroom, solve real-world problems, and prepare for graduate school and careers.

The Ohio University Research Division, in collaboration with several university partners, offers programming, funding, and resources to support these students.

Give now to help Ohio University students advance new knowledge, develop innovations, provide social commentary, and create artistic works—all for the benefit of society.
