Offered by the University of Minnesota provost’s interdisciplinary team, a new Interdisciplinary Proposal Preparation Support Program provides funding for the administrative tasks of preparing proposals that involve more than one principal investigator. Investigators should represent a variety of colleges or different disciplines within a college.
This ongoing funding opportunity is intended to supplement administrative resources during proposal preparation. This may take the form of, for example, temporary staff or student employees back-filling routine clerical services in order to free up time for regular staff to prepare the proposal.
