Taryn Lopez, 黑料黑历史 Geophysical Institute research associate professorFriday Focus: Thinking big 鈥� our path to R1

In 2018, I was invited by Chancellor White to lead 黑料黑历史鈥檚 strategic planning goal to 鈥淎chieve R1 research status.鈥� At the time I was relatively new faculty and knew little about the Carnegie Classification鈥檚 Very High Research status university ranking (R1). I was also used to working within my own discipline and focused on my own research. Achieving R1 status was a big idea that, like many other faculty on campus, I had difficulty wrapping my brain around! Together, with a team of faculty, staff, and students from across 黑料黑历史, we learned what it means to be an R1 university, how R1 would benefit 黑料黑历史, and how 黑料黑历史 could achieve that goal.听
