Valuing Societal Impact in Higher Education
Supporting the Inclusive recognition of innovation & entrepreneurship (I&E) impact by university faculty
Our Approach. Promotion & Tenure – Innovation & Entrepreneurship (PTIE – pronounced “P-Tie”) is a global movement to support the inclusive recognition of innovation & entrepreneurship (I&E) impact by university faculty in promotion, tenure & advancement guidelines and practices. Led by Oregon State University, this effort is made possible by support from the National Science Foundation (Awards # CNS-1936073, TIP-2430589). A key aspect of PTIE is the networked-systems approach it has taken through the nationwide PTIE coalition and PTIE stakeholder organizations. The outputs from this effort are disseminated through publications, biennial national conferences, periodic PTIE workshops and through its website.
Resource Guide for Universities
Interested in recognizing innovation & entrepreneurship impact by university faculty on your campus? Through PTIE’s ART project (TIP-2430589), we have developed a ART Resource Guide to assist universities along the journey.
PTIE Content Page
PTIE has a long-standing practice of sharing out as all developed materials to the community. The PTIE Content page has a wealth of information - including full program details from both the 2020 and 2022 national PTIE conferences.
Accelerating Research Translation Project
PTIE Organizers Rich Carter & Jana Bouwma-Gearhart lead an NSF-funded project (TIP-2430589) working with the 2023 Accelerating Research Translation Awardee institutions.
“Faculty are the talent and idea engines of the innovation economy.”
