Stanford University is one of the world's leading teaching and research universities.

With world-class scholars and seven schools located together on a single campus, Stanford offers academic excellence across the broadest array of disciplines including business, education, engineering, humanities and sciences, law, medicine, and sustainability. It also is an engine of innovation, blending theory and practice to move ideas and discoveries from labs and classrooms out into the world. Stanford strives to foster a culture of expansive inquiry, fresh thinking, searching discussion, and freedom of thought - preparing students for leadership and engaged citizenship in the world.

"Students (Customers) First" is R&DE's mantra and its strategic goals reflect its commitment to delivering service excellence to the campus community. R&DE's belief is "students are never an interruption in our day; they are the reason we are here."

R&DE's dedication to promoting fair treatment, access to opportunities, and a positive work environment is reflected in its essential priorities and efforts for cultivating a culture of operational excellence as a foundational cornerstone.
