Research Triangles
What are Research Triangles?
A Research Triangle (RT) is a small group of faculty members (minimum three) who make a commitment to work together over a period of time to encourage scholarship, research, and creative activity at UNO by facilitating scholarly interactions among faculty.
What is the purpose of Research Triangles?
To provide an opportunity for faculty to discuss research issues/concerns with their colleagues with a focus on improving research and creative activity at UNO and to fulfill the three strategic goals of UNO's metropolitan mission: student focus, academic excellence and community service.
Why join a Research Triangle?
- To interact with colleagues from across the campus.
- To exchange ideas about research/creative activity in an informal, collaborative setting.
- To build a portfolio for reappointment, promotion and tenure.
- To develop research funding opportunities.
What are the guidelines for Research Triangles?
- Each group will choose a facilitator to announce the meeting dates, times, and location.
- By April of each year, the facilitator will submit a brief final report describing the meetings, outcomes and process of the collaboration, as well as listing the active participants in the Teaching Circle. After submission of the final report, funds will be transferred to the active participant's department/school cost center account.
