  1. Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis School of Science Faculty Assembly May 2, 2006 1

  2. Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis IUPUI is a major research institution! From the mission of IUPUI, it is clear that the School of Science must play a central role in the research efforts of the institution. To do so, we must • Hire and retain outstanding faculty • Build vigorous graduate programs leading to the PhD in each of our seven departments • Acquire appropriate research space, including wet labs and animal facilities, to support the research programs of the faculty • Promote interdisciplinary research –– both within the School of Science and with scientists in Medicine or in other institutions and local industry 2 2

  3. Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis Hire and retain outstanding faculty • Provide competitive beginning salaries and start-up packages for new faculty• Bring the salaries of all the faculty in the School of Science to market levels • Provide productive environments for faculty to do their best work, both in teaching and in research 3 3

  4. Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis Build vigorous graduate programs leading to the PhD in each of our seven departments –– we know that graduate students form a vital piece of the research effort in Science! • Increase the number of graduate students in each of our departments• Bring support for our graduate students to competitive levels • Develop a PhD program in Earth Sciences and, where necessary, work with the Purdue Graduate School and West Lafayette departments to reduce impediments to our students’ success in existing PhD programs 4 4

  5. Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis Acquire appropriate research space, including wet labs and animal facilities, to support the research programs of the faculty • Be opportunistic in seeking space on and off campus• Look toward future buildings for expansion opportunities • More than 7500 sq ft of new research space will be occupied or ready for occupancy by School of Science researchers by the end of 2006! LD 040, 220, 222: ~2600 sq ft 1200 Waterway (Polis): ~2500 sq ft MISB: ~3600 sq ft • Future renovation of SL with Engineering and Technology will yield ~3000 sq ft of space for Science • Discussions underway for other space 5 5

  6. Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis Promote interdisciplinary research –– both within the School of Science and with scientists in Medicine or in other institutions and local industry • Support interdisciplinary research collaborations, including centers, within the School • Work with the School of Medicine to identify areas of common interest, in particular, introduce new faculty to SoM scientists • Pursue use of contiguous space for SoM and SoS researchers • Promote joint seminars, joint appointments, etc. • More than 1/3 of School of Science faculty have active research projects with School of Medicine scientists • New space provided for Nanoscale Imaging Center 6 6

  7. Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis To accomplish these tasks successfully, we will continue our active pursuit of major gifts from individuals, corporations, and foundations who share our vision • Enhance the relationship with the School of Science Alumni Association• Build an active Dean’s Advisory Council• Invest in a strong development staff and work with the IU Foundation to build relationships with donors Donations 2000-01: $225,565 (Campaign for IUPUI) Donations 2001-02: $186,516 (Campaign for IUPUI) Donations 2002-03: $412,721 (Campaign for IUPUI) Donations 2003-04: $347,312 (Campaign for IUPUI)Donations 2004-05: $330,051Donations 2005-06: $381,558 (received to date + pledges) 7 7

  9. Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis School of Science Budget Highlights The budget picture for 2006-07 is far from sweet Why are we where we are? • Decisions made in 2004-05 (and earlier) for new faculty hires remove too much cash in 2006-07 • The budget actions of the central administration about our state allocations are inconsistent with the goals the campus has for us and the goals we have for ourselves • The seeds for our problem were sown several years ago, we are now beginning to harvest the fruit! 9 9

  12. Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis A 62% cut in Appropriations is inconsistent with meeting the doubling goals or, indeed, most other goals of the School and IUPUI!!! 12

  13. Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis Appropriations less Assessments 1998-99 to 2005-06 13

  14. Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis The return of this money from the School of Scienceto the central administration means that the July 1budget for the School of Science does not this year,and has not for many years, provided enough moneyfor the School to cover the operating budgets in theSchool! The operating budgets have been funded with cashfrom unfilled positions in the School. The base budget, the July 1 budget for the School,covers salaries, taxes, and other predetermined expenses. 14

  15. Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis Academic Program Budgets 2005-06 Base, July 1: 15,726,271 3,174,005 Cash, 1,185,940 January ’06 15

  16. Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis Academic Program Budgets 2006-07 Base, July 1: 15,984,196 2,360,000 Cash needed: 2,554,942 16

  19. Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis For us to succeed as a School in meeting theChancellor’s doubling goals and our own goalsfor the growth and development of our instructional and research efforts requires investment in the future, for faculty, for graduatestudents, for space. Projections from the current and recent budgetsare incompatible with these goals. Either thecampus budget picture must change or we mustaccept annual shrinkage in our funded facultylines. 19

  20. Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis To run smoothly, the budget process must becontinuous, not something that is attended to onceor twice each year. It must, and it will, directly and significantly involve the chairs and the SoS Steering Committee as well as the dean and others from the Dean’s Office and the administration. 20

  21. Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis Moreover, there will be School-wide strategic planninginvolving every faculty member, starting in the Departments, and directly and significantly involvingthe chairs and the SoS Steering Committee as well as the dean and others from the Dean’s Office. We willseek the assistance of a planning expert in the School or elsewhere on campus, and we will tie the planningto the budget process. 21

  22. Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis I remain committed to IUPUI and thevision for the future that I believe we share! 22
