• Funding to develop future industry leaders through graduate education in swine health, production and economics.
   
• Creating opportunities to pair practicing swine veterinarians with the College's faculty to collaboratively identify industry problems, create solutions and build practitioner capacity in swine production and economics.
   
• Providing in-depth technical support to the swine industry in areas such as statistics, research trial design, data management, and economic analysis.
   
• Strengthening global connections to develop solutions to emerging needs of the swine industry is another initiative under consideration.
