Cleveland State University's Faculty Expertise Database was developed as a service to the CSU community and the general public. In particular, the database is expected to:

increase the public's accessibility to CSU expertise
give business, industry, government, and media representatives access to CSU researchers
foster research collaboration
help students search for faculty advisors
help staff members identify faculty for current and prospective donors
improve contacts with potential research sponsors
