Collaborate to Innovate: Building Community and Educational Partnerships into Your Next Research Project

Are you a faculty member interested in developing a meaningful partnership with a K-12 school or community organization for an upcoming research project – but you’re not sure where to start? 

Join us for a workshop discussing how you can integrate mutually beneficial collaborations with educational and community partners into your research portfolio. UML’s Center for Community Research and Engagement (CCRE), Office of Research Development (ORD), and emerging Center for Educational Partnerships (CEP) will share: 

1. Guiding principles, strategies, and tools for identifying a potential community and educational partner for a future research project, building relationships, co-designing research activities, and stewarding collaborations over time 
2. Available campus resources to support your partnership development 
3. Panel discussion with UML faculty, educational partners, and community organizations that have successfully collaborated on research projects in the past.
