All proposals to external funding sources must go through an internal routing process. The proposal, budget, and the Bryant University Internal Approvals Form must be filled in by the Principal Investigator, and signed by the Department or Division Head, the Vice President for Academic Affairs, the Vice President for University Advancement, and the Vice President for Business Affairs, and filed in the Budget Department Office before the proposal is sent to the funding source. This required process applies to continuation grants as well. The purpose of the process and form is to ensure that all parties are informed about the project and approve any cost sharing and commitment of University resources. If you involve the Budget Department Office and the appropriate Vice President in the development of the proposal, this process should be perfunctory.
To facilitate the Bryant University proposal clearance process, please allow a minimum of THREE WEEKS for processing approvals.
