Dr. Fritz's opening remarks will provide context and insight into the development of the four interdisciplinary institutes and her overall vision for their futures. She will engage the executive directors to describe more specifically their institute's desire to cross academic disciplines, how they engage with faculty and their ideas for the future. |

The Institutes
|
The University of Nebraska has invested in four interdisciplinary, University-wide institutes—including the Buffett Early Childhood Institute, the National Strategic Research Institute, the Rural Futures Institute, and the Water for Food Global Institute—that leverage talent and research-based expertise from across the University of Nebraska system to focus on complex state, national, and global challenges.
