RESEARCH COUNCIL The College of Arts & Sciences Research Council was created in 2023 to enhance research through faculty mentorship and support. The Research Council, chaired by Dr. Christina Frederick, senior faculty research mentor, is comprised of tenured faculty from each department within the college. This year, the council engaged in a variety of activities including the administration of the dean’s Start-Up Funding Program. This program funded two innovative projects, including a multi-disciplinary effort to understand generative AI in higher education. The Research Council also engaged in outreach activities to other campuses, including participation in proposal reviews for the VP of Research Office and Discovery Day through the Office of Undergraduate Research. The Research Council also presented a faculty seminar featuring a panel discussion of journal editors. The editors reflected on the peer-review process and shared insights on how they view submissions. The Research Council will maintain its efforts next year with the Start-Up Funding Program to support research and scholarship efforts.
SECURITY EDUCATION & RESEARCH HUB The future of our technology-driven society begins with the safety and security of the people, places and systems that form it. Peaceful global progress depends on the collaborative efforts of industry, government organizations and leading institutions like Embry-Riddle to develop safety and security innovations that monitor, address and prevent threat environments. To meet this pressing and fundamental need, we are forming the Virtual Collaboratory for Security and Resilience Education, Research and Engagement. Once fully established, the virtual collaboratory will include: s Out-of-classroom research partnerships/internships across the homeland security enterprise s Educational partnerships with agencies and volunteer organizations across the country s Stipends/monetary awards for student-applied research s Travel grants for junior faculty and guest scholars s An E-book security research collection in the Hunt Library s Annual conferences and summer schools that may develop into a graduate school for Civil Security Studies
