The President’s Advisory Committee on University Relations builds and reinforces relationships between members and UCAR management.

PACUR acts as an advisory committee to the UCAR president, proposing agenda items for Annual Members Meetings and proposing activities and programs for UCAR to undertake. PACUR helps UCAR to know what universities need for support, science, and teaching. Labs and programs often bring ideas to the committee and ask for the university perspective. PACUR is currently working on how to connect NCAR|UCAR with underserved colleges and universities in an effort to broaden the Earth System Science community.
