California Governor Signs Budget that Brings UC Riverside School of Medicine Long-sought State Funding
University of California, Riverside, June 27, 2013 - A budget compromise worked out and signed today by Gov. Jerry Brown means that UC Riverside's School of Medicine will receive full and continuous funding of $15 million per year - long-sought assistance that enables the school to flourish and greatly facilitates its ongoing accreditation.
The $15 million for the UCR medical school was included in the 2013-14 state budget and budget trailer bills adopted by the California State Legislature on June 14 and 15. The budget provides for an increase in the University of California (UC) base budget of $125.1 million for the new fiscal year, along with approval for UC to restructure its bond debt, generating an estimated $80 million annually for the next decade. Funding for the UCR medical school will now be part of UC's base budget annually going forward. (Read more...)
