Application to external agencies for research
funding is largely the responsibility of individual faculty members.
Applications to such agencies must go through the Associate Dean of
the Colleges office for approval. Necessary review with respect to
institutional support and budget approval is accomplished by this
procedure. Normally, five working days are required to review
such proposals including Business Office review of the budget. The
Dean’s Office assists faculty members in obtaining grants, fellowships,
and other research support from various sources by:
a) making available 2 major grant directories, maintaining
faculty access to on-line computer grant announcements and information
via Grant Advisor
Plus (http://www.grantadvisor.com/tgaplus/), Independent
Colleges Organization (http://www.ico-dc.com), and Grants.gov (http://www.grants.gov), and by maintaining
a collection of grant and fellowship newsletters, books, announcements,
brochures, application forms and other related materials for faculty
use;
b) notifying individual faculty members and groups of faculty members
of grant opportunities which arise in areas of particular interest
to them;
c) publicizing grant deadlines in Faculty Notices (sent via e-mail);
d) helping faculty members in the writing of grants applications,
particularly by providing information important to determining grant
budgets, and
e) working with the Business Office in grant administration and
the approval of grant budget changes, to ease the administration
burden of grantees.
Approval from various College committees may have to occur prior to
submitting an application. Please check the following web pages if
they apply to your research project:
