Creation of a Campus Interdisciplinary Research Center
Request for Proposals
The Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor and the Vice Chancellor for Research and Economic Development are pleased to announce a request for proposals for the creation of a Campus Interdisciplinary Research Center. It has long been an aspiration of our campus to create a larger type of center under a centralized reporting model with specific creation, review, and continuation guidelines, and with some new central budget allocation. The creation of such research infrastructure is also one of the initiatives in our campus strategic plan, UCR 2030, namely, under Strategic Goal III, Expand the visibility and scope of influence of UCR locally, nationally, and globally<https://strategicplan.ucr.edu/?utm_source=UC+Riverside+Master+List&utm_campaign=d07ea4f207-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2022_04_04_06_29_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_6a473f0f9b-d07ea4f207-#serve-as-an-anchor-institution>.

After extensive consultations with several groups of campus stakeholders (including four think-tank lunches with senate faculty at all academic levels), the Provost and the Vice Chancellor for Research and Economic Development invite applications from existing research centers or combinations of existing research centers and campus initiatives to become UCR’s inaugural Campus Interdisciplinary Research Center (CIRC). Additional CIRCs may be created in the future based on the outcomes of this initial pilot program and resource availability.

Applications should be submitted through the "EasyChair" system. The application must be submitted by the proposed CIRC director, who will become the point of contact for future communications with the review committee.

DEADLINE: Applications must be submitted by 5:00 p.m. (Pacific Standard Time), Wednesday, May 1, 2024.
