There are three ways to get involved with the NMC:

Option 1: Partner Universities
Faculty, researchers, and students from NMC partner universities (NMSU, NMT and UNM) may request funds for the development of collaborative research and educational programs with LANL and other institutions, attend meetings, and fund travel for collaborations.
More information: NMC Office of Research Administration.

Option 2: LANL Staff
LANL staff participation in the NMC is coordinated with LANL’s National Security Education Center (NSEC). Information for LANL staff on how to become an NMC Research Fellow and initiate proposals or other activities with the NMC is available here:

More information: NMC Office of Research Administration

Option 3: All Others
If you are not from one of our partner universities or LANL, there is a third way to become affiliated with the New Mexico Consortium by entering a Research Affiliation Agreement with the NMC. Research affiliates can participate in NMC research and educational efforts, seek funding through the NMC, access NMC research resources, or supervise/mentor research staff.
