Fresno State researchers and their students are looking for ways to fight health problems, to create secure communications and embedded systems and to support local businesses thanks to another record year of research grants and contracts to fund their projects.
The University received 356 grants or contracts for a total of $48.2 million during the 2020-21 academic year. That’s a 3% increase from the year before and places Fresno State among the top four California State University campuses for grants received this past year.
“Despite the pandemic, we once again broke the all-time record for grant awards. The staff in Research and Sponsored Programs have worked diligently, under challenging conditions, in support of our faculty to reach this milestone,” said Dr. James Marshall, dean of the Division of Research and Graduate Studies at Fresno State. “All involved, staff and faculty alike, are to be congratulated for yet another outstanding year of grant-supported scholarship.”
