The Office of Research at the Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development promotes the tenets of research and supports the faculty with the foundations and tools critical to engage in scholarly activities which broaden the understanding of the world around us and which seek to improve the human condition:

• To cultivate, support, and advance research across the life span and around the globe in the arts and culture, communication, education, health, and human development
• To assist faculty in the identification of funding sources, the grant-making process, and in developing funded research portfolios that are supported by federal grants, private foundations, and individual giving.
• To establish policies and procedures that enhance interdisciplinary collaborations within and across the departments of Steinhardt, across the schools of New York University, between the boundaries of international organizations and by way of community based institutions such as schools, service organizations, and hospitals with an emphasis on the translation of research to practice within international, national and local contexts
• To grant pilot support to Steinhardt researchers in the form of targeted and specific internal funding
• To promote with the Office of Faculty Affairs professional development of researchers by offering trainings in all matters of research and grant-making
• To oversee and aid in the activities of the research centers here at Steinhardt
• To encourage the expansion of “out of the box” thinking which challenges and enhances traditional research paradigms so to develop methodologies that are truer to understanding the human condition and which provide for opportunities in those disciplines not conventionally associated with grant-making
• To encourage and support with the Office of Dean of Students funding for students at Steinhardt, and in coordination with the Office of the Academic Dean to increase external funding for graduate assistantships at Steinhardt
• To work with the university Office of Sponsored Research to assure that all research activities adhere to the ethical principles outlined in the Belmont Report and HIPAA policies, and adhere to the regulations set for by the IRB of New York University
• To celebrate and communicate faculty scholarship and creative work.
