Actively cultivate your faculty’s engagement in growing research activities at your institution.
Overview
An increasing number of universities are under pressure to boost their research activity to gain more prestige, foster greater learning opportunities, and better contribute to economic development and innovation. However, breaking into such a competitive space requires interest from faculty, which can be a challenging due to their heavy teaching loads or lack of understanding of how research can benefit their institutions.
A key vehicle in engaging faculty with research growth is communication. In order to gain trust, it’s crucial to use techniques that promote transparency and effectively justify the value of growing research.
