Research and Engagement
Welcome to the Office of Research and Engagement at the University of North Georgia (UNG). Our office serves the students, faculty and staff at UNG by providing support and access to resources that enhance the experience of being part of an engaged university. Whether its direct support of students through the Offices of Undergraduate Research, Nationally Competitive Scholarships, and Academic Engagement, or direct support of faculty and staff through the Center for Teaching, Learning, and Leadership and the Office of Grants and Contracts, we’re here to help.
UNG has a proud tradition of good stewardship of the resources provided by the people of Georgia, and the Office of Research and Engagement looks forward to furthering the goals of our state by engaging with the community as we share our strengths in teaching, research and service.
