蜜桃影像

Sept. 27, 2023

Dear faculty, staff, students and administrators,

The 蜜桃影像 R1 Steering Committee invites you to fill out the following survey to share your ideas and submit nominations for working groups.

One of 蜜桃影像鈥檚 strategic goals is to achieve R1 research status by 2027. R1 is the highest classification of research activity defined by the Carnegie Classification system. Being an R1 university would place 蜜桃影像 within the top 4% of U.S. universities with respect to research.

蜜桃影像 has consistently ranked as an R2 (high research activity) university and as of 2021 was only nine (out of 280 R1 and R2 universities) positions away from being R1. In 2020, as part of 蜜桃影像鈥檚 Strategic Plan, a committee of 蜜桃影像 faculty, staff and students identified mechanisms to help 蜜桃影像 achieve R1 status while maintaining 蜜桃影像鈥檚 core values. This report can be found on the 蜜桃影像 Strategic Goals website.

This past spring, with University of 蜜桃影像 Board of Regents encouragement, Chancellor White revitalized this goal and formed 蜜桃影像鈥檚 R1 Steering Committee. This committee is now recruiting members for working groups that will work toward refining, prioritizing, and implementing the proposed mechanisms to help 蜜桃影像 achieve R1 research status.

If you are interested in volunteering your time or ideas to help 蜜桃影像 achieve our goal of R1 research, or if you know someone who would be an asset to one of our teams, we encourage you to please complete the above survey prior to Oct. 6.

We are hoping to accept between 5-7 people per working group for a total of听 approximately 65 unique 蜜桃影像 faculty, staff, student and administrator perspectives from across all campuses on the various R1 committees. Thank you in advance for your time and service to 蜜桃影像!

Sincerely,

蜜桃影像 R1 Steering Committee
