With a new year – and a new semester – officially in full swing, I want to welcome everyone back to campus. Hopefully, the Winter Break gave you some much deserved time to decompress from the last semester. As we look ahead to the coming year, there are already a number of things to look forward to.
Last semester, we launched our Travel Support and Writing Subvention programs which received a great amount of interest and resulted in a combined total of 19 awards. If you didn’t get to apply during the last cycle, or if you would like to reapply, proposals are being accepted again now through February 15th. For more information, and to submit your proposal, please go to our website.
Additionally, I’m excited to announce that we will be distributing the first annual College of Arts & Sciences Impact Report on January 31st to all alumni, supporters, and friends. This report is entirely dedicated to your research efforts and sharing them with our external community. It will be available on our website as an interactive magazine, but we will also have hard copies available to every department to display in front offices, at events, and to provide to prospective hires, students, supporters, and collaborators.
Finally, I want to remind PIs that your financial reports are now available in the CAS Portal on our website. From here, you are also welcome to schedule time to speak with our accounting office about how to strategically expend your research funding. The end of the fiscal year will be here before we know it so this is a great opportunity to prepare.
Please continue to share your “Research Wins” with us at ResearchWins@unm.edu so that we can help spread the news. We look forward to continuing to highlight the breadth, depth, and impact of your research throughout the year.
