The PSRS must include ALL signatures (all PIs, Co-PIs, Dept. Chairs, Deans of each person, dept, and/or school who has time/resources committed through direct costs, cost sharing or match).

SOLICITED vs. UNSOLICITED

GRANTS

SOLICITED GRANT PROPOSALS respond to advertisements called program solicitations, requests for proposals (RFP), or requests for applications (RFA), which are sent out by funding sources and usually posted on their web sites/listed in funding opportunity databases.

 

UNSOLICITED GRANT PROPOSALS respond to the mission or objectives of the funding source, not to a specific program or advertisement.

 

 

GRANT RESOURCES

If your grant requires information dissemination through a conference, institute, symposium, workshop, etc., contact the UMSL Division of Continuing Education & Outreach. The Division offers complete planning, marketing and support services for programs, on and off campus. Call Dr. Gina Ganahl, Associate Dean, at (314) 516-5925, or e-mail ganahlg@umsl.edu.

The Office of Research Administration supports and advocates research and technology transfer by faculty, graduate students and staff. The ORA provides services in conjunction with external and internal sources of funding for research, along with services related to commercializing discoveries through technology transfer. The goal of this newsletter is to inform the campus community of grants received, to highlight the accomplishments of our faculty, graduate students and staff, and to share with you a calendar of important events and deadlines. Please direct any comments or questions regarding the newsletter to Tamara Wilgers (wilgerst@umsl.edu).
