Research
SUNY Oswego stresses the importance of undergraduate research opportunities, enabling advanced research for undergraduates that many other institutions only offer at the graduate level. We have outstanding facilities that help students gain hands-on experience, dedicated professors who become mentors through your college career and funding to complete your research or creative efforts, and present the results of this work to your scholarly community.
Every year we invest in our multidisciplinary facilities to provide our researchers, creatives and scholars with the tools and equipment they need to work.
