Research Policy Committee
About Us
The Faculty Research Policy Committee serves as a conduit and focal point for faculty discussions with the administration regarding policies that govern research at the University, and will serve as an advisory body to the administration on such policies.
The members of the committee consist of nine faculty members eligible to vote for the Faculty Senate, and members of the administration selected by the Senior Vice President for Research who will serve ex officio. Committee membership should include at least one member of each academic unit (AS&E, SMD, SON, Warner, Simon, Eastman), unless the current Senate Executive Committee members from a particular school assert that there is no need for representation from the school.
