IRC Taskforce Roadmap

 

Since the release of the IRC Task Force Report and Recommendations in 2022, CU Denver has made significant progress in advancing the experiences of lecturers and instructional, research, and clinical (IRC) faculty. Guided by the Provost’s 2022-2025 Roadmap, the Office of Faculty Affairs has partnered with faculty leaders, academic units, and the UCDALI to implement policy improvements, expand professional development opportunities, strengthen communication, and enhance support for IRC faculty throughout their careers. 

Thank you to all of those who have made this progress possible!
