Research-related Events

The Research Office holds an annual Research Town Hall every fall to recognize outstanding research and initiative at Oakland University. 

“It’s important to celebrate the hard work and the success of our faculty who seek external funding to support their research, their scholarship, and their artistry,” said Dr. David Stone, OU’s chief research officer. “The strong research environment generated by our outstanding faculty supports our strategic goal of maximizing student success and helps us live up to our mission of impacting the world through research.”
