UA: RII vs ORP vs RDS (from AI)
At the University of Arizona, these acronyms represent a hierarchical relationship within the campus research administration ecosystem: RII is the parent division that evolved into ORP, and RDS is a specific service unit operating within it.
RII (Research, Innovation & Impact), the original parent division: RII was historically the overarching cabinet-level office responsible for the university's entire research enterprise, technology transfer, and strategic research goals. In May 2025, the university officially evolved the name of this umbrella office from RII to ORP to emphasize a sharpened focus on public and private collaborations.
ORP (Office of Research and Partnerships), the current overarching office: ORP is the modernized, renamed version of RII. As the chief research office on campus, ORP houses university research centers, manages institutional core facilities, oversees research compliance, and provides administrative business services. It serves as the direct administrative parent to RDS.
RDS (Research Development Services) is a front-line service branch nested under the Office of Research and Partnerships (ORP). While ORP handles the macro-level administration and partnerships, RDS works directly with faculty members. They help investigators find funding, form interdisciplinary teams, navigate limited institutional submissions, and write competitive grant proposals.
