Research Consortia

Home Home Research Consortia

One of the GCC’s most essential functions is bringing multiple institutions together to form powerful, domain-specific research consortia.

Organized by areas of interest, these focused partnerships catalyze interactions and provide a supportive environment for collaborative research programs requiring expertise beyond that which is possible by any single institution.
