About Us
We execute and fulfill contracts
AAMU-RISE is the contracting entity for Alabama A&M University. Our business is research and development, which is critical to innovation because it is the investment in technology that enhances capabilities and transforms ideas into products, processes, and services.
We are capable of serving as either a prime or subcontractor to manufacture products or provide innovative services that the U.S. government must have. In today’s fast-paced, dynamic environment, the government's urgent need to solve real-world, complex, problems demands the collaboration of diverse minds and resources. We are ready to collaborate.
The AAMU-RISE Mission
Founded in 2014, the Research, Innovation, Science and Engineering (RISE) at Alabama A&M University was established to pursue and execute contractual research and development opportunities. This is achieved by:
- Developing and administering contracts executed by AAMU faculty and the university's affiliates;
- Promoting and aiding in the fulfillment of the research, services, and educational functions of the university; and
- Using and applying the whole or any part of income and principal exclusively for charitable, educational, and scholarly purposes.
The AAMU-RISE also teams with companies seeking government contracts with HBCU partners who can provide ongoing research relative to emerging technologies
Alabama A&M University is leading the way toward developing a workforce that is as diverse as the population, prepared with an array of perspectives, views and ideas that add strength to a company’s ability to innovate for the future.
Innovation is our goal.
Innovation comes from the connection of diverse minds, diverse experiences, diverse points of view, all focused on a specific problem. AAMU-RISE encourages faculty on campus to not only connect with colleagues outside of their departments, but to also connect with colleagues around the nation and globally.
This diversity of thought will strengthen efforts to overcome the most pressing issues facing society in the 21st century.
