Faculty Research Committee
The University requires each Faculty to have a Faculty Research Committee (FRC), which is chaired by the Faculty’s Deputy Dean for Research. The FRC has dual reporting responsibilities to the Faculty Board and to the University Research Committee. The main purpose of the FRC is to promote and facilitate research in the Faculty of Health Sciences in accordance with the Faculty’s research strategy, guiding research capacity development and advising on allocation of resources, and thereby contributing to the Faculty’s overall mission.
