Announcement<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Office of Sponsored Projects (OSP) will announce limited funding opportunities through (1) posting on the OSP website, and (2) by direct e-mail to all faculty and staff via the faculty and staff e-mail distribution lists. The OSP\u2019s goal is to announce limited submission opportunities at least twelve weeks prior to the sponsor\u2019s submission deadline.<\/p>\n

Proposal development<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The OSP will attempt to align proposal preparation requirements with those of the sponsor. Generally, the following documents are required for internal review:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. One (1) or two (2) page proposal summary and biographical sketch(es) for the PI and Co-PIs (if applicable)<\/li>\n
  2. If the proposal is a resubmission, include no more than one (1) page to the proposal summary indicating: (a) previous review score, and (b) a plan to address reviewer comments.<\/li>\n
  3. An acknowledgement memo from the Dean or designee is required in cases where school or college level financial or other resources are committed to meet cost-share or matching obligations.<\/li>\n
  4. Submit completed document as PDF attachment to: OSP-Limited_Submissions@nau.edu<\/a> by the internal deadline referenced in the announcement. Please include the name of the funding opportunity in the subject line.<\/li>\n
  5. The OSP will notify the sender via reply e-mail upon receipt of the above materials.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The OSP\u2019s goal is to set internal deadlines to submit the above referenced documents at least ten weeks prior to the sponsor\u2019s deadline, pending release of the limited submission opportunity by the sponsor.<\/p>\n

    Review<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    The Office of the Vice President for Research (OVPR) will conduct an internal review of the above referenced submitted documents if\/when the number of interested applicants exceed the sponsor\u2019s proposal submission limit. The purpose of the OVPR\u2019s review is to select the most competitive proposal(s) to move forward to prepare a full proposal to submit to the sponsor.<\/p>\n
