1. PRISM Organizational Overview PRISM UIF Review February 26, 2001 Karen Schmitt, College of Ocean & Fishery Sciences

2. Why UIF for PRISM Organization? Significant Organizational Issues for Interdisciplinary Environmental Science at UW –Highly Interdepartmental –Six Colleges & Deans Decentralized Resources –Centers, Libraries, Office of Research (FHL) Regional Need for UW Contributions –ESA –Water Resources –Urban Growth

3. PRISM Approach Distributed Organization –No Permanent Faculty or Staff Positions –Not a Center or Department –Opportunistically Leverage Existing UW Resources Self-Directed Work Teams (Working Groups) –Highly Interdepartmental, Coordinate via Steering Committee –Involve Participants from Outside UW Use Technology to Facilitate: –Collaboration & Education –Model Integration –Data Base Integration –Information Distribution & Outreach Engage in Regional Issues Where/When Appropriate
