REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA

In the land of over 10,000 lakes, water is a vital resource to residents and tribes. Not surprisingly, 'water' scholarship is a substantial endeavor across the University of Minnesota (UMN) System. Water so transcends campuses, colleges, departments, and centers that it can be difficult to fully grasp its scope. As an initiative of the Research and Innovation Office, the UMN Water Council serves to bring together resources from across the UMN to address the pressing concern of access to clean water for the 21 st Century.
