Other Federal Agencies

In addition to NIH and NSF, a number of other federal agencies support research, education, and patient care activities at Penn State/Hershey. These agencies range from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality that supports health services research and outcomes assessments to the Departments of Defense and Education, among many others. Approximately 10% of sponsored project funding at Penn State/Hershey comes from federal sponsors other than NIH. The Grants.gov website provides a centralized mechanism to access information on these and all other federally sponsored grant programs.
