R&EDWeb -- Research Policies, Procedures, and Forms

The R&ED Office develops policies and procedures on an as-needed basis to help facilitate research training, proposal routing, and proposal submission:

LAB SAFETY COURSE- New Researchers must complete this course to receive start up funding
PROPOSAL ROUTING PROCEDURE - All proposals must be approved by Tech's administration before being submitted to any funding agency. Use this procedure to get the necessary approvals for your proposal.
SUBMITTING YOUR PROPOSAL at GRANTS.GOV - Most federal agencies require proposals to be submitted via the Grants.gov website. The R&ED Research Services Office must submit all proposals through Grants.Gov.
SUBMITTING YOUR NSF PROPOSAL at FASTLANE - The National Science Foundation requires all proposals to be submitted via its FastLane website. The PI can upload his or her proposal at FastLane, but the R&ED Research Services Office actually submits the proposal.
