Research at Dartmouth
Across all five schools, our faculty and student scholars pursue new forms of creative expression and seek answers to pressing questions about climate change, cancer immunotherapy, social justice, cybersecurity, and many other urgent issues.
Through our scholar-teacher model, students work directly with faculty on real-world problems, experiencing the joys and challenges of discovery and creation and helping translate ideas into societal benefit.
As the birthplace of artificial intelligence and the BASIC programming language, the home of the Dartmouth Atlas of Health Care, and a key contributor to the research behind COVID-19 vaccines, Dartmouth has a long history of discovery and creation that reaches well beyond campus.
