Research projects are funded following a review process. Following a call for proposals that defines priority areas, researchers in the three states submit a proposal that is peer-reviewed by the GSCSSA Technical Advisory Committee, as well as by two reviewers outside the program. The proposals also are reviewed by the Industry Advisory Committee. The two advisory committees first meet separately, then jointly, to develop a prioritized list of projects to fund for the coming fiscal year. The Administrative Advisory Committee then meets to act on those recommendations, to identify priority projects and set funding levels.
