IUPUI is a major research
institution! From the mission of IUPUI, it is
clear that the School of Science must play a
central role in the research efforts of the
institution. To do so, we must Hire and
retain outstanding faculty Build vigorous
graduate programs leading to the PhD in each
of our seven departments Acquire appropriate
research space, including wet labs and
animal facilities, to support the research
programs of the faculty Promote
interdisciplinary research both within the
School of Science and with scientists in
Medicine or in other institutions and local
industry

Hire and retain outstanding faculty Provide
competitive beginning salaries and start-up
packages for new faculty Bring the salaries of
all the faculty in the School of Science
to market levels Provide productive
environments for faculty to do their best
work, both in teaching and in research

Build vigorous graduate programs leading to the
PhD in each of our seven departments we
know that graduate students form a vital
piece of the research effort in Science!
Increase the number of graduate students in each
of our departments Bring support for our
graduate students to competitive levels
Develop a PhD program in Earth Sciences and,
where necessary, work with the Purdue
Graduate School and West Lafayette
departments to reduce impediments to our
students success in existing PhD programs

Acquire appropriate research space, including wet
labs and animal facilities, to support the
research programs of the faculty Be
opportunistic in seeking space on and off
campus Look toward future buildings for
expansion opportunities More than 7500 sq ft
of new research space will be occupied or
ready for occupancy by School of Science
researchers by the end of 2006! LD 040,
220, 222 2600 sq ft 1200 Waterway
(Polis) 2500 sq ft MISB 3600 sq ft
Future renovation of SL with Engineering and
Technology will yield 3000 sq ft of space
for Science Discussions underway for other
space

Promote interdisciplinary research both within
the School of Science and with scientists
in Medicine or in other institutions and
local industry Support interdisciplinary
research collaborations, including centers,
within the School Work with the School of
Medicine to identify areas of common
interest, in particular, introduce new faculty
to SoM scientists Pursue use of contiguous
space for SoM and SoS researchers Promote
joint seminars, joint appointments, etc. More
than 1/3 of School of Science faculty have active
research projects with School of Medicine
scientists New space provided for Nanoscale

School of Science Budget Highlights The budget
picture for 2006-07 is far from sweet Why are we
where we are? Decisions made in 2004-05 (and
earlier) for new faculty hires remove too
much cash in 2006-07 The budget actions of the
central administration about our state
allocations are inconsistent with the goals
the campus has for us and the goals we have
for ourselves The seeds for our problem were
sown several years ago, we are now
beginning to harvest the fruit!

A 62 cut in Appropriations is inconsistent with
meeting the doubling goals or, indeed, most
other goals of the School and IUPUI!!!

The return of this money from the School of
Scienceto the central administration means that
the July 1budget for the School of Science does
not this year,and has not for many years,
provided enough moneyfor the School to cover the
operating budgets in theSchool! The operating
budgets have been funded with cashfrom unfilled
positions in the School. The base budget, the
July 1 budget for the School,covers salaries,
taxes, and other predetermined expenses.

For us to succeed as a School in meeting
theChancellors doubling goals and our own
goalsfor the growth and development of our
instructional and research efforts requires
investment in the future, for faculty, for
graduatestudents, for space. Projections from
the current and recent budgetsare incompatible
with these goals. Either thecampus budget
picture must change or we mustaccept annual
shrinkage in our funded facultylines.

To run smoothly, the budget process must
becontinuous, not something that is attended to
onceor twice each year. It must, and it will,
directly and significantly involve the chairs
and the SoS Steering Committee as well as the
dean and others from the Deans Office and the
administration.
20
21
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis
Moreover, there will be School-wide strategic
planninginvolving every faculty member, starting
in the Departments, and directly and
significantly involvingthe chairs and the SoS
Steering Committee as well as the dean and
others from the Deans Office. We willseek the
assistance of a planning expert in the School or
elsewhere on campus, and we will tie the
planningto the budget process.
