Sponsorship Program

Overview - Sponsorship Program Application for Research, Travel, and Professional Development

One of the most important services the GPSA offers for UNLV graduate and professional students is the allocation of funds for graduate and professional research, conference/event travel, and other scholarly activities. This service is intended to provide support for projects that directly affect a student's degree program as well as make a contribution to the scholar's field.

Applicants should understand that this is a competitive application process. Not all eligible applications can be funded. Students submitting funding requests should stringently follow the application components to ensure equitable footing. Incomplete or erroneously compiled applications will automatically be disqualified from the request pool. No incomplete applications will be considered.
