The Office of the Vice President for Research leads and partners with many of the University’s research offices in an effort to forward the University’s research mission.

Mission and vision

The Office of the Vice President for Research (OVPR) serves to enhance research initiatives at the University. In collaboration with our offices, we strive to support URochester faculty and staff through all their research endeavors.

Our office also provides strategic oversight in shaping the future of research at the University, articulating a vision for the research enterprise, and positioning the University at the forefront of research innovation.

As a leading research institution, we have a deep understanding of the value of research—and particularly, the importance of how our research and our classrooms intersect. We aim to enrich the University’s academic enterprise, which is essential in providing a higher education experience that is uniquely URochester.
