Texas Research Development Fund
The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board is an agency of the Texas state government that oversees all public post-secondary education in Texas.
From 1998 to 2003, it developed a new higher-education plan for the state, called "Closing the Gaps by 2015". The plan's stated goal is closing education gaps within Texas, as well as between Texas and other U.S. states.
From this initiative, the Texas Research Development Fund (TRDF) is awarded to Texas Universities from the State. The amount of funding received is based on the amount of research expenditures from the prior three years and awards are made to the University each biennium.
