UConn Faces Challenges in Setting FY19 Budgets - Stephanie Reitz, UCONN Today

With continued reductions in state financial support and rising fringe benefit costs, UConn’s proposed new FY19 budget represents a delicate balance of seeking efficiencies while working to protect the University’s academic mission, officials say. Members of the UConn Board of Trustees’ financial affairs committee got an advance look Monday at the proposed FY19 budgets for Storrs, the regional campuses, and UConn Health, and the full board will vote on them on June 27. The total FY19 budget of $2.4 billion is comprised of $1.36 billion for UConn Storrs and the regional campuses, and $1.04 billion for UConn Health, including John Dempsey Hospital and the schools of medicine and dental medicine. https://today.uconn.edu/2018/06/uconn-faces-challenges-determining-fy19-budgets/
