Curiosity and tenacity
Our faculty pursue research with curiosity and tenacity, making their classes exciting places to be. It also creates huge opportunities for students to learn and make a difference.
Faculty are committed to including and guiding students in transformative research. Research happens in all fields across the University, from the humanities, sciences, to health related fields and business. Our research is supported by the federal and state governments, foundations, and our corporate partners.
Duquesne's Pittsburgh location connects researchers of all kinds to a knowledge economy powered by large tech, medical, energy, and industrial sectors. Students and faculty also learn alongside community partners in the city's neighborhoods, the region, and around the globe.
