Institutional Involvment

All partner institutions are expected to make a financial contribution for a minimum of three years toward the 10-year research project, with the contribution determined by their student volume. In addition, each partner institution will appoint one representative to serve as a member of the GCRC Council. "The mandate of the Council is to enhance the program through the strategic integration of new concepts, addressing academic, methodological, and applied perspectives."
