Southern Illinois University is a major research school nestled in a scenic part of the state, with rivers, parks, ample wildlife and all the amenities of a large city. We are recognized by the Carnegie Foundation as a “high research” institution, including us among the top 5 percent of about 4,000 universities in the nation for scholarly output. The Carnegie Foundation also recently categorized us as a “community engaged” university, joining us with 361 other schools contributing substantially to their homes. SIU conducts research that matters regionally and nationally, keeping us true to our roots as a university with the heart of a small college plus the brains of a major, internationally recognized research school.

We are serious about incorporating research and scholarly creative activity into all levels of campus life. Our graduate school, and our Center for Undergraduate Research and Creative Activities, are dedicated to pairing our students with world-class researchers, artists and other scholars on SIU’s campus. Our faculty members are accessible and dedicated to achieving success beyond the lecture hall, providing our students with real-world experiences that translate to critical thinking skills and competitive career opportunities.

Our research productivity is high, even given the reduced availability of state and national research funding and greater competition among our peers. In 2014, SIU Carbondale had nearly $71 million in research expenditures in science and engineering fields. Our faculty members are leaders in their fields, receiving competitive awards from agencies such as the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture. We pursue partnerships with industry and use these to develop technology, industry and economic activity in our region. Someday Southern Illinois may well become the Silicon Valley of the Midwest, with SIU at the lead.

Many new initiatives have been implemented to enhance research and creative activity at SIU. A 60,000-square-foot collaborative research space is in the initial stages of construction that will house diverse, interdisciplinary faculty and students from fields such as chemistry, biology, engineering, computing, design, communications and agriculture. Key

occupants will include the Fermentation Institute, the Saluki Aquarium, the SIU Mass Spectrometry Laboratory, and a multiuser Maker Space. A collaborative, internal grant program facilitates interactions among faculty on campus in all disciplines. And our research centers continue to foster participation in university initiatives such as energy engineering, neurological science, ecology, and fisheries and wildlife. SIU recently increased network capacity, computing storage and computational power for researchers on campus.

We take our role as a comprehensive university seriously. Our arts and humanities faculty are leaders in their disciplines, producing books, exhibits, musical scores, plays, documentaries and many other kinds of creative works that draw worldwide attention. Our medical researchers are developing novel therapies that can be applied by clinicians at our medical school. Our chemists and engineers are interacting to create the next generation of materials that improve our lives and the technology we use. Our students have access to all of these experiences, leading to an enriching and stimulating learning environment at SIU.

Like most universities nationwide, SIU experienced a sharp decline in research awards after 2012 that was caused by the elimination of federal stimulus funding. In 2014, our research funding began showing signs of recovering, which will continue as new faculty members join our ranks and adapt to the changing external research environment. Our eight colleges and School of Medicine have active grants and contracts for research. More than 250 grants were awarded in 2014, with the College of Education and Human Services and School of Medicine leading the way. Much of this activity translates to commercial licenses, patents, software and even popular books, all which stimulate economic activity in the region.

The SIU Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research is committed to supporting all of our scholars, allowing them to achieve their highest potential – and to share their successes with local stakeholders and colleagues around the world. It is our goal to eliminate boundaries, facilitate collaboration and ensure that SIU is a destination for discovery in a nurturing environment.
