The Council of Associate Deans for Research is an advisory group to recommend research policy and to coordinate operational research procedures among the colleges, university research institutes, and central research administration.

advisory

The college dean's individual appointment of their associate dean of research determines who will be on CADRE.

The Council is composed of the associate deans for research of each of the colleges, the director of the physical science laboratory, director for the WRRI, and the University Research Council Chair, who serves as an ex officio capacity.

No terms, the positions are permanent dependent on who is employed in the position at the time of appointment.

The membership is representative because each of the research deans and directors of the research centers are represented to ensure appropriate processes and working with research issues for NMSU.

As of January 1, 2017, which is the time this Chair assumed responsibility of the committee, the Board is in a continual review of the research enterprise by evaluating the current research resources available, sustainability of these resources and interdisciplinary prospects for these resources across departments and colleges. The Board is also developing a directory of faculty panel reviewers that have served in such position for NSF, NIH, USDA, Foundation grants, and industry to strengthen the review process for limited submissions grant opportunities. Currently, the Board is reviewing the technological processes of the grant/faculty interface of services provided through ARGIS and GRID.
