Discover Research at the College of Built Environments

Excellence and innovation in scholarship: that’s what you’ll find at the College of Built Environments. Across our five departments, students study and work with over 100 active researchers who bring in more than $5.5 million in funding each year.

Our faculty and researchers aren’t satisfied with the status quo. They understand that solutions to the complex problems of today and tomorrow will be developed by interdisciplinary teams with diverse viewpoints. They’re working to create the materials and opportunities to support the built environments of the future. And they’re engaging students with vital social and environmental justice issues that affect the UW community and beyond. Reach out and discover how you can contribute to our vital research.
