About Us

Northwestern State University's Office of Technology, Research, and Economic Development is comprised of Electronic and Continuing Education, Information Systems, Research and Sponsored Programs, and Student Technology. We think of education, research, innovation, and technology more broadly and from a variety of perspectives so that more people can benefit and have a greater quality of life. Our desire is to stimulate research and the creation of intellectual property in support of the University's mission: to be a responsive, student-oriented institution that is committed to the creation, dissemination, and acquisition of knowledge through teaching, research, and service. We consider Northwestern State University to be a state resource and an engine for economic growth and possibility.
