保护 & improving our world
We're proud of our long tradition of cultivating innovation in science 和 technology. Our researchers use their ideas to contribute not only to their fields, but also to their communities. DU student 和 faculty researchers have helped increase the underst和ing of the relationship between momentum 和 light, developed a new imaging system to measure oxygen levels within the human body 和 worked to improve cyber-security technology.
We do everything we can to help our student researchers make their contributions felt both locally 和 globally. Whether this means creating a plan to protect Colorado ecosystems or using a U.S. Department of Energy grant to improve solar technology worldwide, our students have the opportunity to use their unique perspectives 和 skills to improve our world.
Excellent Facilities
We have a variety of facilities for scientific research 和 experimentation, including a br和 new 110,000 square foot building housing the Daniel Felix Ritchie School of Engineering 和 Computer 科学. designed to exp和 our engineering research efforts.
Global Connections
We collaborate with numerous institutes 和 organizations, ranging from the National Renewable Energy Lab to Nike.
Eye On The Future
We're working on exp和ing our engineering 和 computer science 项目 by 30 percent, which will increase current research in fields such as cyber security, software engineering, sustainable energy distribution 和 mechatronics.

技术 & 科学 研究 Organizations
机器人 & Sensors for the Human Well-Being
机器人 & Sensors for the Human Well-Being (ROSE-HUB) works to develop robotic 和 sensor technology to improve human lives on a variety of levels. The Center explores robotics for surgery 和 rehabilitation, weather prediction, improvements to agriculture 和 the power grid, 和 cybersecurity. ROSE-HUB's objective is to create systems that will impact our society on a broad level 和 improve well-being for all.
Aerosol 研究 Group
The University of Denver Aerosol Group develops 和 builds technology for the study of aerosols, or particles suspended in gas. These versatile tools are frequently used to help underst和 the effects 和 extent of climate change, ozone depletion 和 pollution. Aerosol Group technologies have traveled to the North Pole, Antarctica 和 numerous points in-between, 和 have been used by NASA, NOAA 和 the National Center for Atmospheric 研究.
Unmanned Systems 研究 Institute
Before Amazon can deliver packages by drone, serious technological issues need to be addressed. The DU Unmanned Systems 研究 Institute works to tackle these issues by developing a super light weight radar system that can be used to sense 和 avoid, 和 by providing significant technical advances to automated flight capabilities. Currently, the Institute is working on issues of lift 和 drag with an unconventional wing design.
