GRADUATE RESEARCH and DEVELOPMENT (GRD) FUNDING All Fall 2009 Application Awards Have Been Announced Please contact unmgpsagrants (at) gmail.com if you applied in the fall and have not heard from us. The Fall 2010 application due date will be announced by the GRD Chair before the October Council Meeting. GRD Committee Information The Graduate Research and Development (GRD) Committee is a standing committee in the GPSA. It was created around the funding that was allocated to the GPSA by the New Mexico State Legislature in 2000. This funding source for graduate and professional students is set up to assist larger projects that require substantial funding, and is aimed at encouraging UNM students to work on research with state agencies, or in areas that directly benefit the state of New Mexico. The work of past GPSA Councils and the Lobby Committee was invaluable in obtaining and keeping this fund for graduate and professional students. The GRD fund is an excellent example of how your student Lobbying is being utilized to help all graduate and professional students at UNM. Contact us at unmgpsagrants (at) gmail.com.
