Unmanned Aerial Systems (Drones)

The University prohibits unauthorized operation of unmanned aircraft systems (“UAS”, commonly “drones”) on University property. Students, faculty, and staff may apply for authorization to operate UAS for research purposes through the Office of the Vice President for Research (“VPR”) (see: https://www.ou.edu/research-norman/research-services/research-related-policies/operating-unmanned-aerial-systems). Limited use of UAS for University-related business other than research may be authorized by the University’s UAS Review Committee.
