Texas State University is pleased to support the participation of faculty in distinguished national and international fellowship programs (AA/PPS 04.01.32). Faculty members are encouraged to seek awards and fellowships that are recognized by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board for National Research University Fund eligibility.
