GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED: To consider funding of research proposals and other business pertaining to the operation of the FIPR Institute.
The Florida Institute of Phosphate Research has been renamed as the Florida Industrial and Phosphate Research Institute (FIPR Institute) Senate Bill 850 became Florida Law 2010-206 on June 7, 2010, transforming FIPR into the new “Florida Industrial and Phosphate Research Institute.” The change is not only in name, the FIPR Institute is now integrated into the University of South Florida Polytechnic (USFP) in Lakeland, Florida. The scope of the Institute’s applied research will broaden to include more than phosphate-related work, although phosphate research will remain the mainstay. Expanded research topics may include the fields of energy, biofuels, and non-phosphate mining. The FIPR Institute is proud to become part of USF Polytechnic and welcomes the opportunity for innovative collaborative efforts the academic union brings. The FIPR Institute will remain at its present location in Bartow for the foreseeable future.
