Governance

Linking Research, Teaching, and Public Service

Faculty will establish an integrated approach for addressing health, education, and human development issues that links faculty teaching, research, and outreach/service activities.

• Interdisciplinary collaborative teams will establish well-being indicators that guide national models for “best practices” with program and policy implications.
• Community-focused collaborative research, training, and outreach/service activities will provide synergy among faculty teams. 
• Successful outcomes will be equated to “quality of life” and contribute to the economic base. 
• Student-centered focus on social sciences and applied research will add value to the students (undergraduate and graduate) experience and extend faculty scholarship
