2022 (2021 start) ARPAC RIO Centers Reauthorizations Presentation PDF
Center reauthorization requests will be evaluated, in part, on the basis of the center’s ability to:
- achieve success in fulfilling its mission,
- contribute to the missions of its parent unit and the university,
- engage faculty and students across disciplines,
- attract and generate external resources,
- provide outward facing activities
- and evolve and change over time.
Requests for reauthorization run concurrently with the parent unit’s ARPAC review process (every seven years). Parent units should conduct a mid-cycle review of each center in the time period between each reauthorization request.
Requests for reauthorization should include the following materials. Materials should be submitted in Microsoft Word using track changes mode to allow for easy identification of updates.
- Updated Program Plan (Template) submitted in Microsoft Word using track changes mode
- Updated Bylaws (Template) submitted in Microsoft Word using track changes mode
- Budget Template - Reauthorization
- Statement of support from the dean or director of the center’s parent unit
- A 1-2 page (1,000 words maximum) statement which describes:
(a) the center’s success in accomplishing its goals, supporting the missions of the parent unit and the University, and maintaining fiscal solvency,
(b) the benefit of the center’s work to the research, education and/or service programs of CU Boulder and
(c) the justice, equity, diversity or inclusion efforts your center has undertaken, is involved in and/or is planning for in the next 7 years.
- External membership agreement (e.g., with industry), if applicable
The Vice Chancellor for Research & Innovation will approve or deny the center reauthorization.
