Welcome to Research at UW Tacoma
Our Mission
As an urban-serving university, the UW Tacoma aims to "foster scholarship, research, and creativity to address the challenging problems of our time and place."

Within this framework, the Office of Research in collaboration with campus partners aims to:
- Work with faculty to identify funding opportunities for individual research interests as well as high priority areas as identified by our campus leadership and community partners.
- Support the full proposal development and submission process
- Support faculty scholarship and professional development
- Provide research administration support to Research Centers such as the Center for Urban Waters
