At Grand Canyon University, research embodies our mission — where faith drives action and learning aligns with purpose. Founded on Christ-centered character development, our students engage in research to tackle global challenges, foster compassionate communities and devise solutions for human flourishing. Through practical experience, mentorship and inquiry, students develop the wisdom to lead with purpose and serve with impact.
Our research culture cultivates thoughtful problem-solvers, ethical leaders and global contributors. Whether it’s advancing healthcare, influencing education or innovating with new technologies, GCU students learn to harness their talents for the benefit of others.
