Faculty Research Council
The Faculty Research Council (FRC) supports the interdisciplinary and impactful research and scholarship performed by faculty and students within the College of Arts and Sciences (CoAS). The FRC provides support for grant and fellowship identification and proposal writing, logistical assistance to project management, and mentorship in scholarship, tenure, and promotion. The FRC works jointly with the Office of Sponsored Research and Institutional Grants and advises the VP of Research, the CoAS Dean's office, and the CoAS Associate Dean of Research on matters of research excellence.
The FRC consists of seven members total consisting of the Associate Dean of Research in CoAS, who acts as the chair of the Council, the Associate Chair of each of the College's three departments (HSSC, NS, MCS), plus one elected member from each department. The FRC upholds a steadfast commitment to the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion, which make the College and broader scholarship communities intellectually richer, more innovative, more creative, and more productive.
