Effective Jan. 1, 2019, UA implemented a new policy for externally funded proposal submissions.\u00a0This policy is intended to lessen the General Fund investment of research and other sponsored programs performed for outside governmental and private granting organizations.\u00a0There are two changes that researchers and others who work with research and other sponsored programs must be aware:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. All submitted proposals must include at least $5,000 of tuition and fees per year for each graduate and undergraduate student who will be paid a stipend from the project \u2014 when charging for tuition and fees are permitted by the funding organization (e.g., some National Institutes of Health mechanisms such as the R15 emphasize the funding of undergraduate students).<\/li>\n
  2. For all new proposals, for every two dollars allocated to non-academic-year faculty salary (e.g., summer salary), one dollar is required to be allocated to academic-year salary (i.e., a 1\/3 rule for academic-year salary).\u00a0When tuition is not allowed to be covered by a granting organization, then the principal investigator will be expected to increase the amount of academic-year salary to help recover the lost increment from the student tuition.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The full policy document<\/a> can be read\u00a0online on the Office of Research Administration website,\u00a0(or from the ORA Policies<\/a> webpage.\u00a0The ORA is creating a FAQ to help ensure good communication and consistent handling as everyone adjusts to these changes.<\/p>\n

    Early in 2019, UA will implement a more comprehensive policy that integrates this new Research Policy with faculty workloads and RTP\/merit evaluations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
