	Research at Marquette Today's problems. Tomorrow's solutions. Thanks to the hard work of our innovative faculty, Marquette's research program is gaining more momentum than ever. Here are just a few of the accomplishments that make us proud: During the last four years, Marquette faculty have increased external research funding by 36 percent and doubled federal research funding. More than half of the 120 research awards won by Marquette faculty in fiscal year 2006 included funds for student participation, reflecting Marquette's commitment to the teacher-scholar model. We believe collaboration is an asset. In fiscal year 2006, Marquette faculty received $1.4 million for research equipment that will benefit not only Marquette faculty and students but also those at neighboring institutions. Marquette was one of the founding partners of the Biomedical Technology Alliance, which connects academic researchers with industry partners. Marquette faculty edit a number of scholarly journals, from the Journal of Orthopaedic and Sports Physical Therapy to the The International Journal of Systematic Theology.
