Research Board

The Research Board consists of faculty members representing the four colleges, one at-large, the library, and one academic professional staff member serving three-year terms (staggered). The Interim Associate Vice Chancellor for Research and Innovation chairs the Research Board.

The Office of Research & Sponsored Programs resides within the Office of the Provost and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs.

UIS supports international research that promotes cultural exchange and global awareness, a highlight of our General Education learning goals.  Human subjects research conducted outside the United States requires investigators to consider extra factors beyond the typical research protocol.

UIS faculty and students benefit from collaborative research with other scientists.  When those scientists are at other institutions, and human research is involved, then coordinating IRB proposal submissions is necessary to proceed smoothly.
