Partnerships

University of Delaware researchers are making discoveries that are important locally and globally, in such critical areas as food production, renewable energy, medicine, and homeland security, to name only a few. This has spurred on multiple partnerships which have taken wing to ensure UD’s scholarly efforts have the broadest and most sustained impact.

Our faculty, students and staff reached record-setting levels of productivity with the birth of seven UD startups, and the launching of a new national institute and partnerships which include the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory, the Wilmington Veterans Affairs Medical Center and the Chemours Company. Each collaboration is aligned with UD’s mission to ensure a world-class educational experience for our students, while serving as a major force for economic development consistent with a 21st-century Land Grant mission.
