Short Guide to Proposal Preparation

 

CURRENT SUPPORT & PENDING APPLICATIONS

This is one section of the proposal where little judgment need be exercised. Virtually all funding agencies require information on the Principal Investigator's present support and pending proposals. The same sorts of information must be supplied both for grants and contracts in force and for pending proposals. This requirement applies not only to the Principal Investigator, but to all other faculty formally committing time to a proposed project, even if their roles are relatively minor. The following examples show the kinds of information needed: funding agency, grant or award number or other identifying number, project title, dates, other faculty involved in a major role, amount, and the Principal Investigator's total time commitment. This last item must include both your summer and academic year time commitments to the project. Your academic year time commitment is a total of your time devoted to the project, including that for which you are being or are to be paid from the award, and your time committed as University cost-sharing, as discussed in the budget section
