Measuring Our Impact
Members of the CWRU community conduct research daily that makes a lasting difference. But don’t take it from us—the numbers tell our story.
Opportunities to Engage
We’re so eager for undergraduates to participate in research that we created an entire Undergraduate Research Office devoted to connecting them with opportunities—and LaunchNet, which helps students turn ideas into businesses.
For those in industry who may want to partner with our professors, please visit the Office of Corporate Relations.

At Case Western Reserve, students play a critical role in our research mission—at the undergraduate, graduate and professional levels. Discover some of the ways CWRU students can get in the lab as soon as they arrive on campus—and how their efforts make a meaningful impact.
