When the top organizations in the world are looking for research expertise or to test their products, they turn to the University of New Hampshire. Apple, Dell and other top technology companies test their data and network products at the UNH InterOperability Laboratory. Nike utilized our wind tunnel – the longest of its type in the world – in its effort to help marathon runners break the two-hour mark. And NASA has partnered with UNH to support an array of space missions and research. Here are just a few highlights of the world-class facilities in our College of Engineering and Physical Sciences:
The John Olson Advanced Manufacturing Center provides students with the hands-on experience, skills and knowledge to succeed in the manufacturing sector.
The Physics Flow Facility is the largest wind tunnel of its type in the world, allowing students to study aerodynamics in areas including wind turbine design and air flow around an airplane.
The UNH InterOperability Laboratory (IOL) gives students the opportunity to test networking and data communication products while working with some of the world’s top tech companies.
The Jere A. Chase Ocean Engineering Laboratory is where students conduct research in ocean engineering, ocean mapping, ocean acoustics, marine robotics and hydrographic surveying.
Award-winning Faculty
Our faculty and researchers have achieved an array of awards, fellowships and recognitions — from winning a Grammy to being elected into the National Academy of Engineering. In fact, eight of our newest faculty have won the prestigious National Science Foundation’s CAREER Award. Our researchers are also at the forefront of the university’s $107 million in annual competitive research expenditures. As one of only a handful of land, sea and space grant universities, UNH is a hotbed for research on the world’s most pressing matters.
