Innovation Abound at USF St Pete

Research funding at the University of South Florida St. Petersburg campus was over $20 million for the 2019-2020 academic year.  That is a significant increase over the 2018-2019 funding of $7.2 million.  These funds come from institutions including the National Science Foundation, National Archives, National Institutes of Health and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
