Outreach
As Ohio's flagship university, we connect our teaching, research, and service to issues that concern the state and the world. This page is a gateway to the programs, resources and partnerships through which Ohio State engages with communities across the street and around the globe.
Across the State
The Ohio State University isn't just a campus in Columbus. As a land-grant university, Ohio State has a physical presence throughout the state, with campus research centers throughout the state and Extension offices in each of Ohio's 88 counties.
The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching has recognized Ohio State as a university committed to partnering with communities. More about Outreach at Ohio State…
