Federal Research Centers in Ohio

Apply cutting edge technology.

The Propulsion Directorate of the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) is headquartered at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base (WPAFB) near Dayton, Ohio, and leads propulsion research and development efforts for the U.S. Department of Defense.

The NASA Glenn Research Center in Cleveland develops critical systems technologies and capabilities that address national priorities in partnership with U.S. industry, universities, and other government institutions. World-class research, technology, and capability development efforts are keys to advancing space exploration of the solar system and beyond, while maintaining global leadership in aeronautics. NASA Glenn is distinguished by its unique blend of aeronautics and space flight expertise and experience. The Center’s work is focused on technological advancements in space flight systems development, aeropropulsion, space propulsion, power systems, nuclear systems, communications, and human-related systems.

AFRL and NASA Glenn provide limitless opportunities for propulsion and power research and development, procurement, and collaboration with academia and with the aerospace industrial community.
