Office of Research
The Office of Research, under the direction of Vice Chancellor for Research Joe Incandela, oversees and supports the research enterprise on campus. We do this by:
- Assisting faculty and other researchers throughout the
extramural funding process, from proposal development to application
submission to award administration
- Managing intellectual property through patents, copyrights, and material transfer agreements
- Ensuring the integrity of all research on campus by implementing and enforcing policies and regulations
- Encouraging interdisciplinary research initiatives through the
administration of Organized Research Units and the UC Natural Reserve
sites at UCSB
- Promoting and publicizing the quality, breadth, and significance of campus research activity by compiling annual contract and grant statistics, reporting research awards, and highlighting representative faculty projects.
