With the Great Disruption of 2025, the need to coordinate efforts across administrative units and launch new strategic initiatives to maintain institutional research capacity has become acute. However, the administrative capacity to advance new projects has been chronically limited, which has been made worse by new budget limitations and the lack of faculty and staff with experience leading collaborative teams. The Strategic Research Initiative Leadership Program was thus formed as a cross-institutional partnership between Aggie Collaborate and the the TAMUCT Division of Research and Innovation.
