Scholarship of Discovery:

Research Agenda

Academic discovery reflects “the commitment to knowledge for its own sake, to freedom of inquiry and to following, in a disciplined fashion, an investigation wherever it may lead.” (Boyer 1990:17) Discovery includes identifying new or revised theoretical principles and models, insights production in the arts, architecture, design, video, and broadcast media. Discovery may be made manifest through teaching, research, and service.
