OpenScholar Research Websites
OpenScholar academic websites are optimized platforms that enable OHIO faculty to promote research, attract funding and create partnership opportunities. The website supports user-supplied images and documents to showcase research projects, scholarship and creative activities.
The websites are available free of charge, and they will work in coordination with the www.ohio.edu website.
These websites are not meant to replace faculty profiles on the current www.ohio.edu webpages; profiles will remain, and a link will be added pointing to faculty’s OpenScholar site from their profile, to create a more seamless experience.
