From wildfire science and water systems to biomedical innovation and community health, Boise State University turns research into real-world solutions for Idaho and beyond. Our faculty and students work across six key areas — tackling the challenges that matter most to the people and landscapes of this state.
That work carries real economic weight: $42.9 million added to Idaho’s economy, 444 jobs supported, and $70 million in total research awards in a single year. Boise State isn’t just a place of learning — it’s an engine of growth for Idaho.
