From storm-chasing drones to improvements in agriculture and disease-fighting medicines, OSU connects you to a world of cutting-edge research with top-rated faculty and resources.

Knowledge that improves lives and strengthens communities

Science, engineering and humanities research takes place in every college on our campuses, and our Center for Health Sciences in Tulsa. Oklahoma State research is in lock-step with its land-grant legacy. Research at OSU, a Carnegie R1 research university, is relevant, accessible and beneficial — whether it’s exploring basic scientific questions or applied concepts that directly impact lives.

OSU physicists discover universal ‘Squeezing Phase Transition’ with implications for quantum technology OSU physicists discover universal ‘Squeezing Phase Transition’ with implications for quantum technology Oct 15

A team of physicists at Oklahoma State University led by assistant professor Dr. Thomas Bilitewski has identified universal behavior in the way quantum systems evolve, with potential applications in quantum enhanced sensors. The findings, which advance our understanding of entanglement or the quantum property famously described by Albert Einstein as “spooky action at a distance,” were published in the journal Physical Review Letters on September 11.
