Discovering New Funding Models

During the course of its meetings, the Funding Models Committee prepared a funding vision statement, identified core values essential to Virginia Tech’s identity, and developed Preparestrategies for the future. The funding vision conceives of a future that understands the dynamic nature of higher education while identifying new revenue mechanisms, managing costs, and maintaining the high quality of research and education at Virginia Tech. The core values embrace ideals that are essential to maintaining the university’s identity and frame the future; without them, Virginia Tech ceases to be Virginia Tech. Strategies for the future provide broad options to university leaders for implementing the funding vision while maintaining the university’s core values.
