The purpose of this GPSA Student Open Access Fund initiative serves as a means of helping facilitate our standard of very high research activity among graduate and professional students at UNLV. The scope of this initiative is open to all graduate and professional students, including disenfranchised groups within academia as well as any graduate students with a demonstrable financial need and inability to meet article publishing costs within a peer-reviewed open access journal.
The GPSA provides financial support and the Libraries Scholarly Communication and Data Services Department and the GPSA collaborated to design the criteria, application process, and management of the fund.
