Proposal Submission
It is the policy of the College of Community Innovation and Education that grants are not to be submitted to funding agencies without prior approval of the proposal by the Principal Investigators’ Department Chair or designee and by the Dean of the College of Community Innovation and Education or designee.
Submission Authority on Behalf of UCF
The UCF Office of Research (OR) is the only office vested with the authority to sign research proposals and contracts on behalf of the University of Central Florida. The OR must verify that a proposal is current, complete, and accurate. Therefore, OR must review, approve, and sign all proposals, including those when UCF will be a subcontractor, prior to submission to the funding agency. Faculty members are not authorized to submit proposals without prior College, Department, Center, Institute, and OR review and approval. The approval process is performed through the electronic Proposal Transmittal Form (PTF) in ARGIS.
