Under the direction of the Executive Board and the GPSA Manager and Advisor, the GPSA operates through several autonomous and semi-independent divisions or offices. These subsidiary administrative units support varying functions of the GPSA including activities and social events, lobbying trips, programming, messaging, academic/research collaborations, and elections.
Each division is granted an annual budget set forth by the Ways & Means Committee. Divisions provide a higher level of organization, creating a more efficient and productive graduate student government.
Each division is staffed by UNLV graduate and professional students, offering ample leadership opportunities within the GPSA.
