The Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education moved RIT to a doctoral university status in 2016, due to the rapidly growing number of Ph.D. degrees awarded each year. This comes as no surprise to the faculty and students engaged in research, pedagogical undertakings and scholarly activities at RIT. The scholarly efforts within this report continue to have a profound impact within our local communities, the industries we collaborate with, and the world. This work, which ranges from making our university and our communities more sustainable, to understanding the very fabric of our universe, engages students in ways which prepare them for our ever- changing world. The growth of our research and scholarship is guided by our vision for the future, where imagination and the application of interdisciplinary skills will place our faculty and our students at the forefront of the global economy. The ever-growing body of research, scholarship and creative works generated by our faculty benefits our students, our programs, and our industry partners in a multitude of ways. Our recent progress is a clear indicator that we are moving ever closer to our vision of making RIT a pre- eminent student-centered research university. The connections made by RIT faculty engaged in this important work establish new opportunities for our students, and prepare them for the next stage of their careers. It is through these diverse scholarly pursuits that students and faculty are able to collaborate across international borders, and bring new insights and perspectives to their work. It is with great pride that I present this report highlighting our faculty’s scholarly achievements during 2016. JEREMY HAEFNER, PH.D.
