 budget allocation. The creation of such research infrastructure is also one of the initiatives in our campus strategic plan, UCR 2030, namely, under

After extensive consultations with several groups of campus stakeholders (including four think-tank lunches with senate faculty at all academic levels), the Provost and the Vice Chancellor for Research and Economic Development invite applications from existing
 research centers or combinations of existing research centers and campus initiatives to become UCR’s inaugural Campus Interdisciplinary Research Center (CIRC). Additional CIRCs may be created in the future based on the outcomes of this initial pilot program
 and resource availability.<br>
<br>
Applications should be submitted through the "EasyChair" system. The application must be submitted by the proposed CIRC director, who will become the point of contact for future communications with the review committee.<br>
