As a potential graduate student, how can I receive financial support from or be involved with research projects at the CMR?
The CMR only accepts requests for Center support of graduate student stipends and fees from TTU faculty who are working in research areas that are aligned with the Strategic Foci of the Center. Faculty can receive CMR support of graduate students in one of two ways; (1) The faculty member can include graduate student support as part of a Sponsor required matching commitment in an externally funded proposal, or (2) The faculty member can submit a CMR internal proposal that will eventually lead to an externally funded project activation. In many cases, CMR faculty and/or faculty associates may have existing projects that are funded by external agencies. If you identify an associated faculty member with an interesting research project/area, either contact that faculty member directly with your interest, or even better go ahead and apply to TTU’s Graduate School for admission.
