Effective administration, with all its worrisome details, restrictions, and paperwork can be an important element in encouraging scholarly productivity, rather than simply a necessary procedural evil. |

It will be offered May 4, 2011, 9 am-4:30 pm. Instructors are Cathy Seay-Ostrowski, of UMTRI, Karen Liska, Engineering, and Tracy Schauff from the International Center.
