All applications for external grant support are subject to prior review and approval by select campus officials. The review/approval process is guided by a local routing form. This "routing form" is designed to outline some basic facts about the grant application and to capture two sets of required signatures:
- Signatures from all faculty who are expected to participate in the grant-funded program; and
- Signatures of campus officials with oversight responsibility for different aspects of grant-funded activity, including Dean(s) of participating faculty; the Research Foundation Campus Operations Manager; the Provost; and the Office of the President. Additional or alternate signatures may also be necessary.
The Office for Research and Sponsored Programs shall be responsible for obtaining approval signatures of campus officials following the Dean's endorsement. It is important for faculty to work directly with their Department Chair and Dean to assure projected workload (instruction, service, and research) allows for the proposed grant-funded activity.
