Research projects are governed by a contractual agreement between the University and the sponsoring organization. The yearly amount of a project will vary considerably, with a typical annual commitment being approximately $40,000. This level of support is given to projects other than those funded by Dairy Management, Inc., and such independent sponsorship allows your organization to name an individual to the Center's Operational Advisory Committee. For more information, contact Dr. Jayendra Amamcharla, Center Director.
Subscribe as an annual member of the center.
There is no contract or formal process; merely a letter expressing your organization's intent to participate. A $5,000 annual fee will be invoiced at the time of your choice during the year. At any time, support of the Center may be terminated or converted to sponsorship of an individual project. For more information, contact Dr. Jayendra Amamcharla, Center Director.
