Bill > HB499

This bill appropriates $2,550,000 from New Mexico's general fund to the board of regents of the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology (NM Tech) specifically to establish and operate a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) student success center. The funding is designated for fiscal years 2026 through 2028 and is intended to cover the operational expenses of this new center. Any unspent or uncommitted funds remaining at the end of fiscal year 2028 will be returned to the general fund. The bill appears to be aimed at supporting student achievement and success in STEM fields by providing dedicated resources for a specialized support center at NM Tech, though specific details about the center's exact services or programs are not provided in the text.
