CHAMPIONING COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH

- University-wide initiatives to work across the college and across campus
- Expanding cross-college and multi-institutional teams developing federal and other proposals
The only silos we deal with are grain silos. Texas Tech has a reputation for grit and transforming what we already have. Our research is no exception. We know our faculty have more discoveries, more breakthroughs, and make a difference on a global scale when we work together. Davis College has gone beyond talking about collaborative research and has core initiatives that fund and encourage these projects.
