ARIS Announces ORIC 2025 Cohort

Posted On: 04-08-2025

ARIS is pleased to announce that the University of Colorado Boulder, Fresno State, Stanford University, and the University of Toronto have been selected as members of the Program to Enhance Organizational Research Impact Capacity (ORIC) 2025 cohort.

When an organization is selected to join an ARIS ORIC cohort, its Research Impact (RI) professionals and administrators become part of a vibrant community that includes 40 institutions and the largest RI network in the U.S. Within this community, they will learn, share, and implement effective RI strategies.

These four institutions will be building or expanding their in-house expertise to assess and communicate the impact of their research enterprise and to support effective, innovative Broader Impacts (BI) initiatives.

“We are excited to welcome them into this prestigious group of institutions committed to strengthening and expanding their institutional capacity for research impact,” said Susan Renoe, ARIS Executive Director. “By boosting effective BI support at the institutional level, we amplify the benefits of research on society and its impact.”

The BI professionals and their administrative partners are excited to get started. Please see the ORIC 2025 Cohort page for information about the organizations and participants.
