The 70th Legislature (1987) of the State of Texas created the Advanced Research Program and the Advanced Technology Program as complementary, state-wide research programs. As a private university, SMU is eligible to compete in the Advanced Technology Program (ATP). Over the nine cycles, SMU has received $6.73 million in the ATP grants listed below. For information on other ARP/ATP awards contact the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board . For more information on research at SMU contact SMU Office of Research Administration .
