We are dedicated to developing the talent, technologies, and multidisciplinary teams that drive innovation, strategic decision-making, and research for the public interest.
Research, Design, and Collaboration for the Public Interest
Become part of our network
At the Battelle Center, we address the most pressing challenges at the intersection of technology and public policy. We do this by collaborating with our external and Ohio State partners to conduct multidisciplinary research aimed at understanding complex public problems and designing human-centered solutions that support innovation, self-determination, opportunity, and other democratic values for all.
Through commissioned research, experiential learning, and co-curricular programming, we connect our government, non-profit, and industry partners to Ohio State students and scholars, providing a home for unconventional thinkers to innovate beyond technology and serve the public’s interest.
