The University of Toledo

University Research Council

In accordance with the relevant section of the The University of Toledo Policy Manual, each year the University Research Council is composed through a combination of appointments by the President, Faculty Senate, and Graduate Council, as well as through ex officio membership. The length of service varies with the appointment basis. A new policy that reflects the altered structure of the university has recently been approved and signed. Minutes of the Research Council for the past twelve months can be found here.

The council meets the fourth Friday of the month from 1 - 2:30 PM alternating venues between the Field House the the Neurosciences Conference Room on the Health Science Center. The meeting schedule for 2013-2014 is here.
