Top Tier Initiative Action Item Report Pathway Goal: Community Partnerships Top Tier Initiative Action Item Report Pathway Goal: Community Partnerships Action Item # Report: 1-16 ☐ Mid-Year: December 2016 ☒ Year-End: April 2017 (Updated 7/20/17) Action Item Description: Partner with organizations to conduct research that addresses community problems. Submitted By: Name Department Sue DiBella Office of Community Engagement Working Group Members: Name Department David Paul Sponsored Programs Sue DiBella Office of Community Engagement Provide a written overview of the year-long process for your working group. This group has examined ways to report partnerships with agencies, sponsors, and other groups, including a list of sponsors, reported by OSP by 7-1-17; amount of research expenditures, tracked by OSP, reported annually; and inventory of UNLV engagement, collaborations, and partnerships in areas identified above, tracked by the Office of Community Engagement, reported annually. 2016-17 Accomplishments The group addressing this action item originally attempted to gain a list of Southern Nevada sponsors as one measurable outcome, but the Office of Sponsored Programs (OSP) cannot determine Southern Nevada locations from its sponsor database at this time. (WorkDay may provide greater functionality in this regard.) OSP requested that the measurable outcome be altered to “List of sponsors,” which is produced annually at the end of the fiscal year. The Office of Community Engagement (OCE) survey of the campus community asked respondents to provide partner contact info, including addresses, so it may provide some information on Southern Nevada sponsors and the nature of community problems addressed. Data from the survey will be available in June 2017; it will provide baseline data for an inventory of UNLV CMP 1-16 2016-17 Year-End Report 1 of 2 8/9/2017 Top Tier Initiative Action Item Report engagement, collaborations, and partnerships. A system to report the amount of research expenditures tracked by OSP and reported annually is in place. Recommendations The OCE and OSP should continue to work together to develop reports that will capture all data needed relative to sponsors and research revenues; OCE should continue to track engagement, collaborations, and partnerships. 2017-18 Next steps • What should the goals / activities be for the subcommittee? • Who should be responsible? OSP should produce reports relative to FY17 activity at the end of the fiscal year; OSP should explore utilizing Workday to expand its reporting capabilities once Workday is operational; and OCE should continue to produce reports based on the available data collected relative to engagement, collaborations, and partnerships. Please review the list below and “X” the appropriate box(es). ☐ Potential resources required ☐ Any reports generated by this working group ☐ Metrics to be used ☐ No additional reference material Any additional information you wish to share. 7/20/17 Addendum – The Office of Sponsored Programs submitted the “OSP Sponsors FY17” report which is attached per the July 1, 2017 reporting requirement. Regarding the “amount of research expenditures,” OSP Director David Paul notes the amount of expenditures for FY17 were $34,329,627. Regarding the “inventory of UNLV engagement, collaborations, and partnerships,” the Office of Community Engagement submitted the “Survey of UNLV Faculty-Staff Community Engagement,” which is attached per the July 1, 2017 reporting requirement.

Tier goals focuses on supporting, promoting, and facilitating community partnerships and engagement. To help advance this goal, the UNLV Office of Community Engagement has been established to help facilitate and track engagement efforts between the campus and community entities. To this end, it is important that we generate a baseline inventory of UNLV’s community engagement activities. To accomplish this, UNLV’s Office of Community Engagement partnered with the Cannon Survey Center to collect information from UNLV faculty and staff via an online survey. Participants were asked about their community engagement projects/activities, general questions about community engagement (such as guest speaking and perceived barriers to community engagement), and personal volunteering. The results of this survey will be used to help support, promote, and facilitate UNLV community engagement and to pursue the Carnegie Classification for Community Engagement. Data

  • Division of Health Sciences
    Division of Health Sciences The health issues facing our local, state, and national governments are complex, and the solutions will require research, innovation, and collaboration from individuals and agencies representing the full spectrum of health and wellness. UNLV's Division of Health Sciences — along with other health science-related programs in the Nevada System of Higher Education — is addressing today's pressing needs and making tomorrow's discoveries. The division is comprised of the schools of Dental Medicine, Nursing, Community Health Sciences and Allied Health Sciences. Guided by a mission that demands UNLV serves its community, the division is using research, education, training, and service to form unique public and private partnerships. These partnerships are helping provide quality health care to the underserved, educating future professionals, and exploring ways to improve the health and well-being our citizens. Taken together, UNLV is helping build a foundation for a healthier and more vibrant Nevada. Schools School of Allied Health Sciences School of Community Health Sciences School of Dental Medicine School of Nursing Health Physics and Diagnostic Sciences Many industries, medical facilities, and research laboratories demand professionals who understand the safe and effective use of radiation and radioactive materials. Health physics is the study of radiation protection, and the safe use of radioactive materials. Our M.S. program provides students with instruction and research opportunities focused in two career paths: Medical Physics, the effective use of radiation for medical imaging and therapy, and Environmental Health Physics, radiation protection, the industrial applications of radiation and radioactive materials, and the behavior and evaluation of radiation in the environment.
