Greetings from the Office of Research
|
| |
We hope your summer is going well and that you are having a restful time. Based on interactions with our office, it is clear that many of you are working on your Research, Scholarship, and Creative Activity (RSCA). Please know that the Office of Research is always here to help you complete your RSCA goals and that as the summer winds down, now might be the perfect time to schedule out your plans for the fall and spring.
As we prepare for a new academic year, the Office of Research is planning new efforts to engage faculty and spur interdisciplinary collaborations. Look for specifics about our Research Caf茅 series in the August newsletter, as well as information about the calendar for internal grant initiatives and Research Development workshops.

CSU STEM-NET Collaboration Potential
|
| |
The
program is looking to identify faculty from 91猎奇 interested in developing collaborative proposals in STEM (research grants, education grants, development, etc.) over the next 6-9 months. STEM-NET has been involved in over 32 collaborative proposals in the past two years, half of which were funded. These collaborations are an excellent opportunity to help grow interdisciplinary research and identify collaborators from across the CSU (and beyond). Please email Matt Leineweber (
matthew.leineweber@sjsu.edu) with your interest and questions.
