The Research Commons is a place where researchers can connect with each other and with services that support and enable their work. It is a campus hub for collaborative and interdisciplinary research areas across all fields with a special focus on Data Management, Digital Humanities and Geographic Information Systems (GIS).

OSU Student Organizations

With almost 1,400 student organizations, Ohio State's Student Organizations provide a wide range of opportunities for students to get involved. Student organizations have a significant impact in providing effective learning environments for students, preparing them to live and work in a global community. In addition to building lasting friendships, student organizations provide many benefits including serving as a medium for academic discourse, personal growth, leadership development, intercultural understanding and community engagement. Moreover, research suggests that involved students tend to perform better academically and are more likely to graduate when compared with their non-involved peers.

More information and pricing is available on the CampusParc website.
