2:00 – 4:00 pm
Virtual (link sent upon registration)
The aim of this workshop is to:
- create connections and collaborations among faculty through interdisciplinary research and creative activity themes;
- organize faculty for the Provost’s Strategic Plan Research Symposium; and
- set the stage as Dr. Bob Damrauer joins CLAS as Director of Collaborative Research Initiatives, where he will mentor faculty and oversee a grants program that fosters interdisciplinary research across CLAS departments.
During the workshop, you will have the opportunity to meet with others with similar research interests and develop ideas for collaborations across disciplines that could lead to seed grant funding through CLAS Interdisciplinary Research Initiatives. These discussions might also help plan “pitches” for the Provost’s Strategic Plan Research Symposium. The Symposium sessions intend to identify focus areas that CU Denver should invest in strategically to enhance our impact and national prominence. Getting CLAS research ideas at the front of this effort is a high priority.
The registration form includes questions to help organize a productive workshop. Under each broad interdisciplinary theme, we have listed a wide variety of topics based on the research and creative activities we identified across the college. Note which interdisciplinary themes align with your interests and which topics fit with your research and creative activities. If we have missed any topics, please note these as well. Please register by October 12th.
