FAQ Test
Contact SRA. However you are comfortable: e-mail, phone, and stop by our office in the Fenster all Building (3rd Floor); just be in contact.
The best option is to send an e-mail to the Research Director/Project Manager with a CC to the srard@njit.edu . We recommend using your Director/Research Manager assigned to your college rather than emailing a specific staff member. This will allow us to provide coverage, if necessary, when staff are not readily available. That being said, SRA is also happy to take your phone calls and encourages you to call your representative if that is your preferred method of communication. A list of SRA contacts is located at our web site http://www.njit.edu/research/
Federal agencies distinguish between deadlines and target dates.
Deadlines are absolute and proposals received after a deadline are not accepted. For those competitions with target dates, there is no need to inform the Program Director if a proposal will be a week or two late.
If the delay will be significantly more, please contact to make certain it can still be included in the pending review cycle. For some NSF competitions, requests may be submitted at any time
Follow the Proposal Preparation Guide:
- Work with Department/College Representative and SRA early in the process
- Read the solicitation closely and address any special requirement
- Become familiar with agency-specific rules, e.g. National Institutes of Health (NIH) salary cap and National Science Foundation (NSF) 2-month effort limitation.
- Prepare the necessary forms. Ensure all Investigators have submitted their Conflict of Interest Disclosure prior to submission
- Confirm the Internal Sign off has been approved up to SRA's level of approval
- If the proposal includes subcontracts, ensure you have received the signed Sub-recipient Commitment Form for each subcontractor.
Any federal agency recognizes that innovative research often lies at or between traditional disciplinary boundaries and encourages interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research.
A potential applicant should contact a relevant program Director and discuss their particular project. For administrative reasons a proposal may be submitted to only one Program. However it can be jointly evaluated and funded by several. This is a common practice in archaeology and projects do not slip between the cracks. Experience indicates that review by multiple Programs may best be viewed as multiple opportunities for support and not as double jeopardy.
There are several mechanisms to provide support to researchers at multiple institutions and to accomplish this within the framework of a single project.
These include subcontracts, collaborative awards and a central plan of administration by a single institution. Although one needs to consider carefully which mechanism is most appropriate in a specific case, none are cumbersome and all are regularly employed.
Applicants should call the Program Director to discuss the details, advantages and disadvantages of each alternative.
