List of Proposals Submitted
This report provides a detailed listing of the competitive proposals (both new and renewals) submitted during the reporting quarter. The report includes all sponsored program activity (both research and education/service) that is managed by Sponsored Program Services within the Office of the Vice President for Research.
The report includes two lists of proposals: 1) by the PI’s Academic Home Department; and 2) by the Managing Department or Center/Institute. This report includes all proposals submitted in the reporting quarter, based on the date a proposal was submitted to the sponsor and lists the total amount of requested funding for the entire project. The proposals listed reflect the current status of data in the InfoEd research administration system as of the date the report was created. Some information related to recently submitted proposals may be incomplete while the data entry process is underway.
