The University of Montana is on pace to hit $90 million in research for the 2017 fiscal year, another high mark for the flagship.

Vice president for research Scott Whittenburg announced the estimate Friday in a forum with some faculty members and campus research professionals.

At the update, he said if UM does bring in that amount, it will be another record. The total would be 14 percent more than last year – but Whittenburg joked that it still falls short of his personal goal.

"If we can get to $100 million, I can finally retire," he said.
