Finn Gunnar Nielsens forskning har rettet seg mot samvirke mellom hav (vind, strøm og bølger) og marine konstruksjoner. De senere år har han spesielt arbeidet med dynamikk av vindturbiner til havs. Han var professor og direktør for BOW fra starten i 2018 frem til han ble pensjonist i 2023. I sin tidligere stilling ledet han forskningsprosjektet som utviklet av verdens første fullskala, flytende vindturbin. For dette arbeidet ble han i 2018 tildelt Norges Tekniske Vitenskapsakademis ærespris.

Finn Gunnar Nielsen er aktiv ved å holde foredrag om energi fra havvind og fornybar energi generelt. Har pulisert boken: Nielsen, F. G. (2024) Offshore Wind Energy. Environmental Conditions and Dynamics of Fixed and Floating Turbines. Cambridge University Press. doi: 10.1017/9781009341455.

Finn Gunnar Nielsen har vært leder av programstyret for de to- og femårige masterprogrammene i energi ved UiB. Han har forelest grunnleggende energiemner og spesialemner innen havvindenergi.

Tidligere har han utviklet og forelest et emne innen marine operasjoner ved NTNU. Her er også utviklet et eget kompendium.
