Chancellor for Research and Dean of the Graduate School<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Research Dialogues showcases and celebrates the diverse array of scholarly and creative activity occurring on campus.\u00a0 We expect attendees to develop a broader awareness of the variety of activities happening across many fields.\u00a0 Even more importantly, Research Dialogues encourages collaborations and conversations among participants about the intersections of research and scholarly activity in different disciplines.\u00a0 Most of the problems that our society faces cannot be solved through one discipline working in isolation.\u00a0 Collaborative, interdisciplinary approaches bring diverse perspectives to bear on challenges and ideas, which can lead to transformative innovations.\u00a0 This event is called \u201cResearch <strong><em>Dialogues<\/em><\/strong>\u201d in recognition of the importance of the conversations and exchange of ideas that occurs when the artificial lines between different disciplines and modes of inquiry are erased and people come together.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong>How is this year\u2019s event different than last year?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Based on feedback from last year, we\u2019ve added and expanded on some of the things that really worked.\u00a0 For example, we\u2019ve significantly expanded options for performances.\u00a0 This year, we\u2019re expecting to see a strong slate of musical performances, short plays, dramatic monologues, and other performance presentations.\u00a0 Building on the interest in last year\u2019s 3 Minute Thesis for graduate students and the Elevator Speech competition for faculty, we\u2019ve added a new Undergraduate Lightning Round presentation on Day 1.\u00a0 We\u2019ve also encouraged faculty to present on both days.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li><strong>How easy will it be to understand the research?\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>One of the goals of the event is to clearly communicate and share information across academic disciplines, so you won\u2019t have to be an expert in any particular field to enjoy the event!\u00a0 There are also several competitions including an Undergraduate Lightning Round, 3 Minute Thesis, and Faculty Elevator Speech competition.\u00a0 These are short pitch-type presentations &#8211; 2, 3, or 4 minutes in length \u2013 where students and faculty will compete to communicate their scholarly or creative pursuits to a diverse audience.\u00a0 The presentations are very accessible, and the presenters welcome questions and interactions about the research.<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"max-width: 100%;\"style=\"max-width:

start=\"6\">\n<li><strong>Why should students participate\/attend?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Communication is a critical skill in any discipline or career.\u00a0 Participation in a campus-wide conference is an excellent opportunity to practice in front of a friendly audience and hone a skill that is transferable to any career or advanced study.\u00a0 I hope all students will consider participating in some way \u2013 through the poster session, a podium presentation, a performance, or in the Lightning Round.\u00a0There are many options for students in any major to find a presentation style\/opportunity that works for them.<\/p>\n<p>If students aren\u2019t sure about presenting, I hope they will attend the event.\u00a0 It is rare for research from so many different departments and disciplines to be convened in one place. Research Dialogues provides an excellent overview of the breadth and depth of scholarship at UTC.\u00a0 It is a great way to learn about the many kinds of research, and scholarly and creative activities on campus, as well as find inspiration for collaborations or for individual research.\u00a0 Most importantly, it will be fun!\u00a0 Students can \u201cpicture themselves\u201d doing a variety of\u00a0research, scholarship, &amp; creative activities in the selfie booth and play \u201cResearch Dialogues Bingo\u201d to enter a drawing to win one of four $50 gift cards.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"7\">\n<li><strong>Why should faculty participate\/attend?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>There are a number of reasons for faculty to participate or attend.\u00a0 It is a great way for faculty and staff to share information about their scholarly pursuits with a campus-wide network of faculty and students. There are relatively few mechanisms for faculty and staff to share their research interests with the whole campus, which makes the Research Dialogues conference a wonderful way to find possible collaborators and begin discussions about collaborative, interdisciplinary scholarship.\u00a0 Research Dialogues also provides a cost-effective form for faculty to model for their students how to participate in a professional conference and how to communicate to diverse audiences. Participation and attendance at the event also make an important statement to colleagues and students that faculty members are interested in being part of UTC\u2019s community of scholars.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"8\">\n<li><strong>Why should members of the community attend?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Research Dialogues is perhaps the only event on campus that brings together a campus-wide showcase of the variety of research, scholarship, and creative endeavors on campus.\u00a0 It is the proverbial \u201cone-stop shop\u201d for people who are curious about what UTC is doing in any particular field \u2013 or across multiple academic disciplines.\u00a0 While Research Dialogues is just a 2-day event and cannot possibly convey all that is happening at UTC, it is a wonderful introduction to the scholarly and research community at UTC. A visit to Research Dialogues underscores that the spirit of innovation and entrepreneurship that has come to define Chattanooga here among UTC students and faculty.\u00a0 The students presenting at Research Dialogues this year are the future entrepreneurs and drivers of innovation and excellence across all sectors of our community.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"9\">\n<li><strong>Will there be any surprises?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The most frequent feedback that we receive from attendees \u2013 even UTC faculty and administrators \u2013 is that they are surprised by the diversity of research, scholarship, and creative expression happening on campus.\u00a0 I think people will also be surprised at the complexity of some of the research that our students are engaged in \u2013 undergraduate and graduate students.\u00a0 Prepare to be amazed!<\/p>\n<p>Visit the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.utc.edu\/research-sponsored-programs\/research-dialogues.php\">Research Dialogues web page<\/a> for event details and schedules.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/utk.co1.qualtrics.com\/jfe\/form\/SV_eFK1JGXMhIjPvzT\">Sign up to present<\/a> at this year\u2019s event.
