Public Scholarship for the Public Good

Public Scholarship for the Public Good: An Implementation Framework for UC Davis was created as an institutional guide for the university community — including leadership, faculty, students, and staff — to begin implementing changes that shift the way the university works to support publicly-engaged research, teaching, and learning, and to more explicitly account for the critical role that the public’s knowledge and needs play in both the research process and learning outcomes. Public Scholarship for the Public Good identifies three goals and related objectives that align with the vision and goals laid out in To Boldly Go: A Strategic Vision for UC Davis, the university’s Diversity and Inclusion Strategic Vision, and the university-wide task force report, “What It means for UC Davis to be a Hispanic-Serving Institution: Investing in Rising Scholars and Serving the State of California.”
