Proposal Support

 

Proposal Support from College of Forestry Research Office

Our office strives to give full support for initiating and submitting grants. Some grants take a lot of effort especially those that have large budgets, have subawards, or require match. Therefore, in order to receive full support from our office and to meet institutional routing timelines, you should contact our office to begin work on the EB3 budget at least one month prior to the deadline.  This is especially true for inexperienced PIs submitting major federal applications with large budgets involving outside institutional subawards.  We must have a final budget in our EB3 budget template and a fully compliant budget justification that we have reviewed and are ready for submission to OSRAA  no less than 10 days before a deadline

 If you have an unforeseen emergency proposal deadline and are unable to meet the timeline above, contact us immediately and we may require an explanation and involve your department head. Approval to go forward will be dependent on our current workload.  

 A reminder that all external funding entering OSU must be institutionally reviewed and approved. It is critical that you involve our office as soon as possible when in conversation with outside entities so we can determine the appropriate mechanism to bring funds in (i.e. OSRAA, ARF, OSUF, PCCM).  All budgets, regardless of funding mechanism, should be reviewed by our office prior to sending out to external entities to ensure all appropriate costs have been included.
