Online database ‘Collaboratory’ is a vital information hub, where research, activities, partnerships and more reside to amplify impact.
“What excites me most about Collaboratory is having a location where all of the information can be stored and yet be visible at the same time,” said Dr. Gloria Murray, director of the Office for Community Engagement at IU Southeast.
IUPUI is excited to be an early adopter of the Collaboratory, a web-based platform that tracks and monitors partnerships, activities, and collaborations among universities and their communities.
