Kilbey’s Research Leadership with ORE
Mike Kilbey wraps up a year of research leadership at the UT, Knoxville, serving as chair of the Research Council of Faculty Senate and as a Faculty Fellow for Strategic Research Initiatives in the Office of Research and Engagement.
The Research Council works to promote excellence in research, scholarship, and creative activity, and provides counsel to the university’s research administration on matters that effect research.
The role of a Faculty Fellow is to assist the Associate Vice Chancellor for Strategic Research Initiatives and their team in efforts to strategically position and enhance competitiveness for large, multidisciplinary research funding.
“It was exciting to see the diversity of scholarly work that is ongoing at UT, to connect with faculty and research leaders from across the university, and to be engaged at a time when dynamic changes that impact the research landscape of the university are taking place,” Kilbey said.
