COR Leadership
The Council on Research is led by an Executive Committee comprised of three cohorts of senior research officers, those at the Vice President/Provost/Chancellor of Research level. Each cohort of eight members is elected for a three-year term by COR members. A Steering Committee that includes the COR Chair and Chair-elect works with APLU staff to highlight material for discussion during monthly Executive Committee meetings which guide COR future activity.
