WHAT WE DO

The Center for Applied Research works with businesses and organizations throughout the region to help leverage the intellectual capabilities of the university.  We match faculty, staff, and students with regional businesses and organizations to conduct research, consulting, and other applied projects. These projects can range from economic impact studies to new product development.  In addition, USI is the University partner for Downtown Evansville’s Certified Technology Park, Innovation Pointe.  Our purpose is to actively engage faculty, staff, and students in our regional community to share their expertise with businesses and non-profits.  This engagement will not only benefit the region, but will also help these individuals in their career development.
