Start Date,End Date,Progress,Duration (in seconds),Finished,Recorded Date,"Thank you for taking the time to answer this brief survey about Public Impact-Focused Research, which will provide useful data for the APLU to understand the experiences universities have had in carrying out this type of research. Results from this survey will not be attributable to any individuals nor institutions and none of the survey questions require responses.
The APLU Public Impact-Focused Research Initiative has four goals:

 

1.    Develop strategies for enhancing the public impact of each University’s research portfolio.

2.    Reduce barriers to Public Impact-Focused Research in public and land grant universities and their research partners.

3.    Develop language to describe and showcase impacts from Public Impact-Focused Research. 

4.    Ensure that this initiative also strengthens support for fundamental research.

 

Working definition: Public Impact-Focused Research is research that is conducted for the explicit purpose of benefiting the public.

We have adopted the term ""public engagement"" which has a formal definition (approved in 2006) that focuses on reciprocal engagement and partnerships with communities. Public Engagement at our university is about working WITH community partners and honoring the knowledge and expertise that reside outside of the academy to produce higher impact societal outcomes of our research.  Our promotion and tenure guidelines were revised 2007 whereby every department was required to articulate how it would incorporate public engagement in the promotion and review of faculty.

Each of the collegiate recipients become eligible for the Presidential award.
