Applications for the UO Leadership Academy are due Jan. 24. Continue developing your capacity to lead from where you are.
Faculty members are encouraged to claim an ORCiD and associate their work to their unique research identifier. This will increase visibility of your scholarship, enhance networking efforts, and jumpstart your Elements profile. Learn more about ORCiD from UO Libraries and read up on how this effort relates to UO’s Elements project.
