We proudly recognize the faculty of Florida Atlantic University as our 2025 Distinguished Researcher honorees, in acknowledgment of their unwavering dedication to advancing the mission of the Research Park: to support research and development in affiliation with FAU and to drive economic growth in South Florida.
Florida Atlantic has evolved from an upper-division commuter institution to earning the Carnegie Endowment’s R1 designation for very high research activity and doctorate production. This isa premier status held by the top 5% of more than 4,000 institutions in the United States. This transformation is the result of years of effort by faculty researchers, who have relentlessly pursued excellence in research, commercialization, and student achievement.
