    The Goal

Since the fund will earn income, it will have the ability to respond to the current and future needs of IRREC for many years to come.

    The Need

    The UF/IFAS Indian River Research and Education Center is internationally renowned for cutting-edge research and high quality education offered to graduate students. In addition to providing a location where graduate students complete research towards both master's and doctoral degrees, the center provides leadership in research

    Funding will enable support for graduate students focused in agricultural and environmental research programs at the Indian River Research and Education Center, a need which will partly be sustained by current or projected resources appropriated by the state or federal government. With your support, the Indian River REC Academic Research Endowment woudl help fulfill our goal of advancing graduate student education.
