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.
