Organizations beyond our campus recognize the high quality of our faculty scholarship; many support Whitworth research programs. Whitworth faculty members have received grants from a broad range of organizations, including Fulbright Scholarship in Residence, The Lilly Foundations, the M.J. Murdock Charitable Trust, NASA, the National Science Foundation, and the Welch Family Foundation. Whitworth faculty members are engaged in a wide array of research, creative production What We Do and performance, and scholarly projects. The work of our natural scientists ranges from research into celiac disease to the brooding habitat of the greater sage-grouse to potential medications for Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s to space-flight propulsion. Scholars in the humanities publish poetry, examine the work of Franciscans in China, explore the writing of Great Awakening figure George Whitefield, examine intellectual virtues, and discuss religious activism as part of the Civil Rights Movement in the Northwest. Social scientists measure the success of HIV/AIDS non-government organizations among Nairobi’s youth, analyze media coverage of law and faith, explore the emerging church, and describe effective means to teach literacy.
