Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ

Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ the Sandia University Partnerships Network (SUPN)

aims to cultivate enduring strategic and mutually beneficial relationships with a focused set of schools and to invest our corporate resources at a level commensurate with the partnership impact. 

As an ongoing member, the University of Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder will continue to have a Sandia campus executive and deputy campus executive to provide a connection with Sandia’s leadership team, who will work with faculty to develop and realize a strategic partnership vision and plan. Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ’s campus executive will provide advocacy for the partnership within both institutions, facilitate joint research interactions, and support placement of Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ students and graduates at Sandia. Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ will continue to have access to seedling funding for collaborative research partnerships with about $300K of dedicated Laboratory Directed Research and Development (LDRD) funds each year. The use of these funds will be directed by your campus executive, in concert with Sandia’s LDRD program.
