Research and Post-Baccalaureate Studies

“Many of us never realize the impact an idea can have on the world but for more than 100 years, the faculty, staff, and students at Notre Dame have turned their ideas into life-altering developments. From Albert Zahm’s 1893 proposal for launching an airplane, to late 19th-century wireless communication pioneer Jerome J. Green, to our on-campus Radiation Laboratory that has produced the largest concentration of radiation chemists in the world, those ideas have helped change the world.”

Rev. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C.
