Outreach
What does it mean to be a public university in a democracy?
It means:
- our teaching extends way beyond the borders of our campus
- our research is often conducted in the community and in collaboration with the public
- we cannot feel satisfied until we have translated our promising discoveries into application
The first few documents below describe some of our most interesting outreach projects.
