Discovery and innovation at the heart of Temple University

The College of Science and Technology empowers extraordinary researchers to explore, to discover and to reach into the unknown.

Across disciplines, top CST scientists—National Academy members and authors of some of the most-cited scientific publications in history—are advancing research on materials, energy, genomics, molecular science and biodiversity. They powered Temple University’s rise to R1 status and inclusion in the top 25 research institutions measured by Google Scholar citations.

With six departments, a dozen research centers, multiple undergraduate research opportunities, a growing funded-research budget, technology transfer to today’s marketplace and powerful partnerships across Philadelphia and around the world, CST is a potent engine for discoveries that dramatically enhance all of our lives.
