External Funding Increased in 2020 Fiscal Year as PVM Faculty Brought in More Research Dollars

July 24, 2020

The external funding of the Purdue University College of Veterinary Medicine grew during the 2019-2020 fiscal year to a total of $12,095,137, an increase of nearly 10% compared with the previous fiscal year. The funding comes from various sources, including the federal government (49%), foundations, and private companies. About 81% of the federal funding is provided through grants from the National Institutes of Health, which reflects the One Health mission and relevance of the research in our college. Faculty also submitted more research proposals than in the previous fiscal year.

“In spite of the challenges imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic, our faculty, staff, and students continue to be engaged in cutting-edge research, and we look forward to another productive year,” said Dr. Harm HogenEsch, associate dean for research.
