Source of Funds

The SPH currently uses the following source of funds to operate:

  • State - Allocated either directly through appropriations or  the HSC central allocation process.
  • Tuition & Fees - Allocated through HSC.
  • WVU Research Corporation - Externally funded projects acquired through faculty project submission/acceptance/award.
  • Foundation - Donated funds.
  • Special Revenue - Auxiliary accounts created via service contracts, college and academic innovation fees, etc.

State funds may revert back to the State or HSC Finance if unused. Special Revenue and Foundation funds carry forward and Research Corporation funds are restricted to the terms and definitions of the external funding agency. Departmental operating budgets will be primarily set up in state funding. Foundation funding may be available for certain departmental needs as donations are received for specific purposes.
