Research

Towson University fosters interdisciplinary research and scholarship that breaks new ground, complements current knowledge and leads to solutions for the public good. From election security to uncovering local history, our research programs involve undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, the community, government and the private sector.

Student-focused research at TU 

Our graduate and undergraduate students pursue research across all disciplines at TU. Faculty-mentored research allows them to explore a topic in depth and refine their academic and intellectual interests. Students participating in research develop essential skills in problem-solving, innovation and collaboration that employers find extremely valuable.
