Position Summary:

The University of Wisconsin-Madison Office of the Vice Chancellor for Graduate Research and Education (OVCRGE) provides an instructional and research environment and is responsible for providing financial and administrative assistance for 17 research centers, including research administration, with an operating budget of $180 million. The OVCRGE also administers a wide array of Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (WARF) sponsored research programs on campus with a total budget of approximately $90 million annually. A key component of the University of Wisconsin-Madison's Human Research Protection Program (HRPP) and a unit of the Office of Research Compliance, the Institutional Review Board (IRB) Office oversees human subjects research conducted at UW-Madison. The IRB Office houses the Health Sciences (HS) IRB and the Minimal Risk Research (MRR) IRB. The IRBs review biomedical and health sciences research projects, as well as education and social behavioral research projects, to determine whether the research meets the federal criteria for approval. The office works closely with a variety of constituencies including researchers, IRB members, regulatory support staff, post-approval monitoring groups, and offices across campus that support the research community.

The Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research and Graduate Education has a deep and profound commitment to diversity both as an end in itself but, also as a valuable means for eliminating health disparities. As such, we strongly encourage applications from candidates who foster and promote the values of diversity and inclusion.
