Enhancing Multi-University I/UCRC Management Tools: A Case Study

This toolkit focuses on the enhancement, evaluation, and dissemination of management tools for I/UCRC directors. It includes program status updates, web-based methods, access guidelines, and tool-sharing sections. The Virginia Tech and South Dakota School of Mines and Technology centers contribute dynamic web-based tools for data integration and decision support. The program also provides information on implemented and planned tools, project management systems, personnel management, and quarterly report systems. Directors are encouraged to provide feedback, share tools, and engage in collaborative discussions through the interactive website. The toolkit aims to streamline management processes and facilitate effective communication among I/UCRC partners.
