The Faculty Associates Program brings together UNC
Charlotte faculty with synergistic research interests and works to cultivate
collaborative interdisciplinary projects that can benefit from
spatial-analytical technologies. The Program is also a resource network for
students to access potential advisors, committee members, and sources of
specialized knowledge. The program develops and capitalizes on these research
synergies through the sharing of specialized geospatial software, hardware, and
knowledge maintained within the Center. |
