Today’s complex, interconnected world calls for a new approach to discovery, and Nevada’s research institutions are answering that call.
Research is central to Nevada’s economic recovery and sustainability, increasing the availability of good-paying jobs and the secondary industries that support them. Through academic and research partnerships, Nevada’s research institutions are finding solutions to important, real-world challenges, and they’re generating knowledge that advances core industries in Nevada and nationwide. Nevada research also directly translates to teaching, enhancing student learning while giving residents access to new information as it happens and valuable context to issues facing our state, nation, and world.
The work happening every day at the Desert Research Institute, the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and the University of Nevada, Reno is advancing the health, prosperity and quality of life of Nevada’s residents and preserving the Silver State’s diverse wonder of natural resources.

The Desert Research Institute, University of Nevada, Reno and University of Nevada, Las Vegas are part of the Nevada System of Higher Education. Research Works for Nevada is a collaborative communication initiative of these institutions.
