Research Faculty Orientation

Whether you arrived on the Iowa State University campus this year or in the past couple of years, we truly value your contributions in helping achieve our aspiration to be the university that cultivates a diverse, equitable, and inclusive environment where students, faculty, and staff flourish.

The Office of the Vice President for Research is delighted to host a Research Faculty Orientation information exchange – featuring a made-to-order (by the VPR!) omelet station – on the morning of Wednesday, January 22, 2025. Our program will focus on the life cycle of a research project from ideation through award management. We’ll start serving omelets at 8:00 a.m. in the Memorial Union Great Hall. Our information session will follow and our VPR team will be available to answer your questions through 11:00 a.m.

Registration is required – and to become better acquainted with your colleagues expertise – we ask you to come prepared to share a quick overview of your research interests and expertise using this simple template. Upload your slide with your registration prior to January 22.
