Principal Investigator Eligibility
All faculty may exercise the privilege of being named as Principal Investigator or Project Director on proposals submitted for external support. Unclassified professional staff could qualify to serve as principal investigator, however justification to designate a person other than a faculty member as principal investigator must be approved by the appropriate Chair and the Vice Chancellor for Research prior to submission of a proposal for external funding.
In all cases, institutional approval must be obtained prior to the submission of the application to the funding agency, as outlined in the PI Eligibility Policy 1.1.01.
