University of New Orleans

The University of New Orleans is a mid-sized public urban research university serving undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral students with a practical, regionally engaged character. Its New Orleans location places research and talent close to the Gulf Coast economy, while The Beach at UNO provides an adjacent research park where companies, public agencies, nonprofits, and university units share laboratory and office space. The Office of Research supports sponsored programs, public-private partnerships, industry contracts, and regional economic development, while technology management staff guide intellectual property from disclosure through licensing and startup formation. Competitive federal support includes NSF, NIH, DOE, DOD, NASA, NOAA, and other national sponsors.
