Research communities are provided administrative support through the Office of Research and Innovation, including website development and assistance with program development. Some limited funds are also available for research community activities. Given the range of research, scholarship, and creative activities among 福利在线鈥檚 community of scholars, the research community model is intended to be flexible.

Research communities are expected to focus on a multidisciplinary topic and be open to participation from colleagues from across campus. We strongly encourage student participation. All research communities are expected to have a leadership team and to participate in the Council of Research Communities which meets each semester to share best practices and help inform programming for the growing network of research communities. You will also be expected to have members participate in other joint activities offered through the Office of Research and Innovation that are offered once or twice a semester, in addition to the activities organized by your individual community. Examples of activities organized by individual research communities include (but are not limited to) writing groups, seminars, and social events that bring together people with common research interests. Some research communities develop collaborative projects or grants, while others come together to support the work of individual scholars.
