The University of Kentucky annually conducts more than $300 million in research — from groundbreaking clinical trials involving Parkinson's Disease to cancer vaccines to research into sustainable energy alternatives to fuel our country's needs.
UK is one of the United States' leading public research institutions with more than 70 nationally ranked programs along with a number of initiatives aimed at solving some of the country's most vexing challenges in health, education and economic development, among others.
We invite you to spend some time exploring UK's research enterprise. As Kentucky's land-grant, flagship institution of higher learning, we are connecting research in the lab to communities across Kentucky and the globe in the hopes of shedding light and discovery on issues and problems.
