UMASS DONAHUE INSTITUTE

As the University became a five-campus system in the early 1990s, the now-named UMass Donahue Institute began to undertake special projects for the UMass President's Office including outreach as well as economic development and analysis. During this era of expansion, the Institute partnered with the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston to launch the influential MassBenchmarks journal, began work on state economic plans, and positioned itself as a competitor for large federal contracts. In 2020, the institute joined UMass Amherst, the Commonwealth's flagship campus and among the top-tier public universities in the U.S. In 2021, the institute celebrated it's 50th year of public service and outreach... Applying our combined knowledge, expertise, and resources we serve a range of clients, from small non-profit organizations to large global corporations, as well as municipalities, federal agencies, school districts, and statewide associations. Our work is funded by grants, contracts, and fees..
