University of South Florida
Board of Trustees
Health Sciences & Research Workgroup
The business of the USF Board of
Trustees is conducted through three workgroups composed of Trustees,
faculty, university administrators, USF Foundation representatives, and
staff. These workgroups focus on attaining institutional goals adopted
by the Board.
Workgroups review and recommend policies to enhance University
effectiveness and efficiency in attaining these goals and periodically
assess the effectiveness of the University in implementing the policies
of the governing Board.
The Health Sciences & Research Workgroup reviews and recommends to the
Board policies for enhancing the University’s sponsored research
portfolio, research integrity and compliance, the research
infrastructure; Health Sciences Center management, in particular,
clinical practice and hospital affiliations; and university engagement,
including community partnerships, outreach, workforce development, and
economic development.
Prior to fall 2005, the Health Sciences & Research Workgroup met as
three separate workgroups: Health Sciences, Research & Scholarship, and
University Engagement; the Health Sciences Workgroup and the Research &
Scholarship Workgroup also met annually in a joint meeting
