Research Advisory Council
The Research Advisory Council is an advisory committee to the Vice Dean for Research of the School of Nursing, Research Areas of Excellence leads and the Assistant Dean of Research Development. The Council formed to establish a dialogue between faculty and the Vice Dean of Research for the School of Nursing, to advise the Center for Nursing Research on all matters of research of concern to faculty, and to update the Council on research activities in the School.
