Research UMR:Serving the needs of Missouri and our Nation

“An expert is a person, who by his own painful experience has made every conceivable mistake in

a narrow field.”

Paul Adiren Maurice Dirac(1902 - 1984)

“The aim of education is the wise use of leisure.”

Aristotle(384 - 322 B.C.)

UMR’s Vision

A university whose faculty and staff are committed to excellence in teaching and learning and to the success of students

A university where faculty, staff and students conduct nationally-competitive research to meet societal needs

Vision and Strategy

UMR, already among the top 100 national universities, has the potential to become an even more highly regarded institution of higher education. To achieve greater recognition for its programs UMR must:

recruit undergraduate students,

expand the size of its graduate programs, and

increase the level of sponsored research programs.

Our long-range goal is the “top tier” in the U.S. News & World Report’s rankings of the “best” 50 undergraduate programs in the nation and the top 50 universities offering Ph.D. engineering programs.

The Role of Research

Humankind continues to improve itself through understanding and knowledge. Research plays the pivotal role in continually advancing knowledge.

Research activities at UMR should:

strengthen and enhance student learning (undergraduate research assistants, graduate students)

be the engine for for economic development of the state of Missouri and our nation through technology transfer

play a key role in our external reputation

Important Research Measures

Keys to Attaining Research Goals

Identify and develop strategic responses to major research opportunities, and provide mechanisms to facilitate them

Work cooperatively with the UM system’s Office of Government Relations

Encourage and coordinate intercollege, interdisciplinary research

Work with the administration to foster research collaborations outside the boundaries of our institution

Develop university positions on major policy issues related to research

Promote appropriate research programs / activities of the campus

Encourage undergraduate and graduate student participation in research

Foster strong relations between the UMR research community and federal / industrial partners

A smooth-running Office of Sponsored Programs

Strong relationship with the development office Pursuit of emerging opportunities will dictate a need to raise funds for research infrastructure (buildings, labs, chaired professorships..)

2003-2004 University of Missouri Research Board

http://www.system.missouri.edu/research/welcome.htm

  The University of Missouri Research Board consists of 19 faculty members appointed by the President for two-year terms. Its mission is to enhance the long-term quality and quantity of scholarship throughout the University by supporting meritorious research projects. An important goal is to leverage external funds by supporting promising new faculty and funding high quality new initiatives of senior faculty. This support is intended to:

help promising new faculty initiate their research provide seed money to test new ideas in their preliminary stages before

enough data have been gathered to submit a proposal for external funding provide modest resources for excellent scholarship in fields for which

external support may be quite limited provide matching funds sometimes required by external sponsors, and provide bridging funds.

      A commitment of partial support for a project from the campus, college or unit is not required, but it may be a positive factor in the review. Proposals for new cross-disciplinary research initiatives are encouraged.

Background

http://www.system.missouri.edu/research/welcome.htm

The Board expects significant return to the University on its investment, as measured by increased grant/contract income, productivity and accomplishment, and increased stature and national/international visibility of the faculty and its programs.

Current budget: $2M & holding; used to be $4M

The Board has established programs for:

individual or collaborative projects special opportunities, and book publication subventions

Special Opportunities Grants: designed to leverage large external funding opportunities and normally involve cooperative effort among faculty members; accepted at any time and reviewed as expeditiously as possible to meet an agency deadline.

UMRB Recipients: October 2002 Competition

$291K; 29% of the total funds awarded

No funds are set aside for specific programs or for specific types of proposals. However, inter-departmental and inter-campus collaboration may strengthen a proposal and serve as a positive factor in its evaluation.

There are no quotas; the goal is to support the most meritorious projects, regardless of discipline, campus or departmental affiliation, or faculty rank of the applicant.

All research endeavors are considered; particularly interested in encouraging the career development of young faculty and in facilitating exceptional new initiatives of more senior faculty.

Favorable consideration is given to projects that will likely result in applications for extramural support.

Awards are not renewable. The Research Board will not serve as a source of continuing support for specific projects or facilities. Awards normally are for a one-year period, but longer terms (up to a maximum of two years) are permitted if fully justified in the proposal.
