Limited Submission Opportunities
To successfully increase funding opportunities available to the UMBC faculty, an internal selection process has been established by OVPR to assist with limited submission opportunities.
For more information please contact:
Internal Selection Process — Researchers who are interested in submitting a proposal to a limited submission opportunity are required to submit an internal proposal for internal review and selection.
PROCEDURE:
E-mail the internal proposal (three page max) and an appropriately formatted CV (e.g., NSF format for an NSF opportunity) to limited-submission@umbc.edu by 5:00 p.m. on the internal deadline date. Internal proposals do not need to be routed but should include budgets. Your department or college may be able to assist you in preparing these budgets. For opportunities where UMBC must provide matching funds, please attempt to obtain obligations from campus units who will contribute toward the match for your proposal. Such commitments will make your internal proposal stronger.
A confirmation notice will be forwarded upon receipt of your internal proposal. If you do not receive a confirmation within three business days, please contact Don Engel.
