CANCELLED: Understanding Research Impact In-Person
CANCELLED: This class has been cancelled. Please continue to consult calendar for future classes. Nowadays, it is not uncommon for employers, academic institutions, and funding agencies to ask for evidence of research impact before making important decisions, such as tenure promotions, academic honors, or grant awards. Therefore, it is important for researchers to understand what research impact is and what they can do to document, enhance, measure and present their research impact to those decision makers. This session introduces the core concepts of research impact, its deep roots and long tradition, the various quantitative metrics of impact, and an emerging practical framework for telling impact stories. This session also introduces how to publish and disseminate research work in ways that improve discoverability and therefore enhance impact.
