President’s Office Announces $10.2 Million for Fourth Round of Strategic Funding Awardees

UF President Ben Sasse announced a fourth round of strategic funding awardees as part of a $130 million funding boost by the Florida legislature earlier this year. This funding will help advance UF’s status as a top research university and allow students and faculty to make groundbreaking discoveries in the areas of AI, space exploration, automation, healthcare, and more.

“The University of Florida is a world-changing institution. Our faculty do incredible work, and we are making some strategic bets on projects that can transform everything from space exploration and agriculture to construction and sports,” Sasse said. “We want to elevate UF’s reputation as a national research leader and innovator. We’ve been entrusted with resources from the state, and we’re putting those resources to work. Gators are doing groundbreaking, interdisciplinary work here that will have a powerful impact on the industries of the future – in Florida and beyond.”
