Proposals should introduce strong solutions to create cost-savings that impact our broader campus and/or offer innovative new opportunities to diversify our revenue streams. Proposals may be used to develop external funding as a function of an impactful partnership with a corporate partner/foundation.
Any full-time staff or faculty member may submit a proposal and must maintain full-time status throughout the duration of the project. Instructors, part-time staff or faculty, and students can serve as a team member but cannot take a lead role. Submissions should consider whether the activity falls within the parameters of a current position and/or whether it can be covered under a current operating budget. If a submission’s proposed amount is under $10K, please work with your supervisor and/or identify alternative funding sources to fund the project.
