Grants Programs: UC IPM Competitive Research

| About this program | More grants programs |

Status of the Program

In fall 2003, for the first time since 1980, UC IPM will not issue a general call for research proposals for next year’s funding. Permanent funding cuts to UC IPM during fiscal years 2002-03 and 2003-04 significantly reduced the research grants program, in addition to increasing UC IPM’s reliance on external grants for ongoing operations.

While the program fully funded this year’s continuing research projects, the possibility of further cuts makes availability of funding for projects next year uncertain. Researchers are encouraged to apply to the Exotic/Invasive Pests and Diseases Research Program if their projects target exotic pests or invasive species non-native to California.
