Research & Innovation
SDSU President Malcolm A. Love, who served between 1952 and 1971, once declared, “No institution of higher learning can exist and not do research. Our primary aim is teaching, but research is concomitant.” Our faculty engage in cutting-edge research that focuses on important practical issues. Our research findings enrich our teaching and allow us to provide more valuable service to our community.
In the last 5 years, COE faculty members were awarded over $110 million in contracts and grants. Over 15 funded centers and institutes are advancing research in the education fields and providing services to the San Diego community and beyond.
