The WSU College of Veterinary Medicine ranked No. 6 among veterinary colleges nationally for National Institutes of Health research funding last year.
“The college has consistently ranked in the top 10 of veterinary colleges for over a decade,” said Jon Oatley, associate dean of research for the college. “Our success in garnering extramural research support is a reflection of the quality of basic and applied science conducted across all units that makeup our college.”
In the last three years, the WSU College of Veterinary Medicine twice ranked in the top 5 among 30 veterinary colleges for NIH funding in the United States. NIH is the largest public funder of biomedical research in the world.

Students’ applications and judges’ sign-ups are now open online for the ninth Showcase for Undergraduate Research and Creative Activities (SURCA), which will be held virtually on March 29, according to the Office of Undergraduate Research at Washington State University.
“We anticipate as many as 200 students will again be accepted to share their research, scholarly pursuits, and creative activity, and we will need just as many faculty, post-doctoral students, and guest experts from the community to serve as judges,” said Mary Sanchez Lanier, assistant vice provost in charge of this year’s event. “SURCA is a long-time WSU tradition and it’s always a pleasure to see how the university comes together to participate and lend support in any number of ways.”

Washington State University students can apply online now through March 5 for a variety of awards to support their mentored research, scholarship, and creative activities in academic year 2021–22, said Mary Sanchez Lanier, assistant vice provost.
“Thanks to the vision of generous donors and other funding, recipients of these awards students from all majors and campuses can afford to spend more time concentrating on their research efforts rather than having to work at a job,” she said.
Five types of awards are available this year. Two are presented by the Office of Undergraduate Research in the Division of Academic Engagement and Student Achievement, one is from the Voiland College of Engineering and Architecture, another is awarded by the WSU LSAMP (Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation) program, and the fifth from the Team Mentoring Program (TMP).
