Sent on behalf of the Steering Committee for the Research, Scholarship and Creative Activities Strategic Plan
Dear Faculty and Staff,
App State is developing a research, scholarship and creative activities (RSCA) strategic plan for the university. The plan is designed to advance research, innovation and creativity — one of the six strategic priorities in App State’s 2022-2027 Strategic Plan.
Feedback Sessions
Later this month, the project team will host a series of interactive meetings in person and on Zoom to present the current draft of the strategic plan and solicit input from employees. If you would like to participate in one of the feedback sessions, please be sure to register below. This will ensure that we have the appropriate number of facilitators for the sessions and that registrants receive reminders for the sessions.
