| + | ===Green Roof Project=== | ||
| + | The project took many twist and turns over its lifecycle. Initially, the project called for a brand awareness campaign fused with Design Thinking Workshops for bringing students and faculty both on campus and virtually together to emphasize and ideate solutions towards increasing student engagement within the space. The collaboration led to the project being phased as "transforming an existing green space into an interdisciplinary innovation hub for participatory learning." In connection to the brand awareness, several engineering projects were initiated by the founder, Nelson Fernandes. These projects were worked on by a virtual team starting in 2020, inspired by the pandemic, where students from SIU and other universities in the US and Europe came together. The students designed, manufactured, and installed 3 temporary small wind turbines with Solar PV for the Green Roof to inspire a clean energy agenda by the university. Additionally, conducted research on a smart irrigation system's effectiveness and a wind turbine constructed from common household materials. All projects were used to showcase opportunities available to students on campus within this interdisciplinary space. From the project outcomes, several awards were awarded to the team and founder including the Illinois Innovation Network's Student Innovator of the Year, SIUC Student Service Award, etc. Currently, the Green Roof Team transitioned as a business where they are turning their experiences and projects into educational resources and diy kits for sale.

| + | |||
| + | The Office of Economic and Regional Development at Research Park has made strides in helping professors and researchers on campus to commercialize their research through a 12 week program called "Operation Mousetrap". Operation Mousetrap held its inaugural sessions in 2010 and features keynote speakers that are experts in their own business and law related fields. The participants of Operation Mousetrap also learn to create a mock business plan and sales pitch for their business, and must do so to graduate from the course. This program has helped many professors to form successful businesses, including Dr. Ken Anderson, the CSO and founder of Thermaquatica. | ||

DxR Development Group's roots are in education... specifically, medical education. In 1990,Southern Illinois University School of Medicine Professors Hurley Myers, PhD and Kevin Dorsey, MD, PhD, collaborated with software engineer Eldon Benz to produce a computer simulation program that allowed medical students to conduct a clinical investigation using a virtual patient. The program recorded the students' decisions, allowing faculty to review how the student reasoned through the patient problem. From this effort, Diagnostic Reasoning, the precursor to what is now known as DxR Clinician, was born. Clinician has since been translated into Japanese, Chinese, and Spanish and is used in at least a dozen countries.</span> | <span>Jack Crelling, PhD how is a Board Member & Technical Advisor for Thermaquatica joined the SIUC faculty in 1977 as a professor and the Leader of Coal Characterization Laboratory and the Maceral Separation Laboratory.

Saluki Entrepreneur Corps
Saluki Entrepreneur Corps (SEO) is a registered student organization that's goal is to enhance student member's business and entrepreneurship skill. SEO also focuses on networking within the community with local business owners and SIU Carbondale alumni that have started their own businesses or joined start-up companies. They hold speaking events on campus featuring best selling authors and marketing experts, as well as spearhead campus-wide business competitions such as the Saluki Elevator Pitch Competition.
Office of Sponsored Projects Administration
A unit of the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research OSPA facilitates and promotes research and sponsored project activities on campus. (Research is defined broadly, to include research training, scholarship, and creative activities). The OSPA is the official university agency through which faculty and staff submits external grant proposals and receive external grant awards.
Interdisciplinary Research Resources
It has been established by the Task Force on Interdisciplinary Research Enhancement at SIU to advance communication and knowledge exchange about interdisciplinary research efforts at SIU and beyond. Sections include:
- Networking - SIU Community of Scholars: Look here if you seek to communicate with scholars at SIU, to find researchers at SIU by expertise or fields of interest, or to create a research interest group.

Digital Humanities Lab
Established in 2018 as the Creative Writing Podcasting Studio, the Digital Humanities Lab provides students with a unique opportunity to try their hand in new mediums for publishing humanities research. A joint effort by the English and History Departments, with the rest of the College of Liberal Arts, the Digital Humanities Lab also helps set SIU apart by giving students unique opportunites.
Green Roof Project
The project took many twist and turns over its lifecycle. Initially, the project called for a brand awareness campaign fused with Design Thinking Workshops for bringing students and faculty both on campus and virtually together to emphasize and ideate solutions towards increasing student engagement within the space. The collaboration led to the project being phased as "transforming an existing green space into an interdisciplinary innovation hub for participatory learning." In connection to the brand awareness, several engineering projects were initiated by the founder, Nelson Fernandes. These projects were worked on by a virtual team starting in 2020, inspired by the pandemic, where students from SIU and other universities in the US and Europe came together. The students designed, manufactured, and installed 3 temporary small wind turbines with Solar PV for the Green Roof to inspire a clean energy agenda by the university. Additionally, conducted research on a smart irrigation system's effectiveness and a wind turbine constructed from common household materials. All projects were used to showcase opportunities available to students on campus within this interdisciplinary space. From the project outcomes, several awards were awarded to the team and founder including the Illinois Innovation Network's Student Innovator of the Year, SIUC Student Service Award, etc. Currently, the Green Roof Team transitioned as a business where they are turning their experiences and projects into educational resources and diy kits for sale. You can learn more through their website: https://greenroofteam.com/.
Faculty Innovation & Entrepreneurship
The Office of Economic and Regional Development at Research Park has made strides in helping professors and researchers on campus to commercialize their research through a 12 week program called "Operation Mousetrap". Operation Mousetrap held its inaugural sessions in 2010 and features keynote speakers that are experts in their own business and law related fields. The participants of Operation Mousetrap also learn to create a mock business plan and sales pitch for their business, and must do so to graduate from the course. This program has helped many professors to form successful businesses, including Dr. Ken Anderson, the CSO and founder of Thermaquatica.
With the availability of the Southern Illinois Research Park the faculty of SIU have not hesitated to pursue their own passion and research while bringing a few or even many of their students along for the journey of innovation and entrepreneurship. Thermaquatica founder Dr. Ken Anderson has developed the OGD concept, and has served as PI on four grants funded by the Illinois Clean Coal INstitute to explore the concept and develop the fundamental technology. He is a full professor in the Department of Geoplogy, at SIUC.
Jack Crelling, PhD how is a Board Member & Technical Advisor for Thermaquatica joined the SIUC faculty in 1977 as a professor and the Leader of Coal Characterization Laboratory and the Maceral Separation Laboratory. He retired from active teaching in 2006 and now continues on the faculty as a Research Professor DxR Development Group, INC. DxR Development Group's roots are in education... specifically, medical education. In 1990,Southern Illinois University School of Medicine Professors Hurley Myers, PhD and Kevin Dorsey, MD, PhD, collaborated with software engineer Eldon Benz to produce a computer simulation program that allowed medical students to conduct a clinical investigation using a virtual patient. The program recorded the students' decisions, allowing faculty to review how the student reasoned through the patient problem. From this effort, Diagnostic Reasoning, the precursor to what is now known as DxR Clinician, was born. Clinician has since been translated into Japanese, Chinese, and Spanish and is used in at least a dozen countries.
