A Database for RSCA Advice and Collaboration
This database of faculty expertise for research, scholarly, and creative activities (RSCA) has been developed by the College of Social Sciences (CoSS) to facilitate faculty collaboration.
Experts would be happy to provide mentoring/pro-bono advice for areas of expertise marked with “*” in the listing below. For the remaining areas of expertise, please discuss various collaboration options when you contact the experts. These options include mentoring/pro-bono advice, working as a paid consultant, developing proposals for funded research, working on an already funded research project, etc., or a combination of such options.
To list faculty with specific areas of expertise, choose from the options below and click the APPLY button, which appears as soon as you start selecting search criteria. Please note that choosing multiple options could result in a smaller list of experts. Finally, if you were not able to participate in the survey, please consider doing so now.
