As a premier research institution with world-class experts, Cornell has the advantage of a richly collaborative environment. By reaching across disciplines and bridging our campuses in Ithaca and New York City, our faculty are building a research community where unexpected integrations of deep expertise point the way toward the solutions of tomorrow.
Guided by faculty task forces, Cornell is investing in ten strategic discipline areas: artificial intelligence; critical inquiry into values, imagination and culture (CIVIC), data science, design + technology, digital agriculture, genome biology, infection biology, nanoscale science and microsystems engineering, quantum science and technology, and sustainability.
