University Research Council
Mission: The University Research Council (URC) aims to foster and stimulate the research and creativity (R&C) mission at CU Denver through its role in advising administrative and R&C leadership, making recommendations to improve the R&C environment, and informing strategies to grow the R&C enterprise. The URC will take a critical role in reporting to faculty via Dean and Department Chairs/Heads about R&C, evaluating internal proposals, and other activities related to a healthy R&C environment.
