OSR-100 Overview

last updated 02/21/08


Proposal Submission Form (OSR-1):

A completed OSR-1 form (revised 9/06) must be submitted to OSR with each proposal, preferably five business days prior to the proposal deadline. The OSR-1 provides basic information about the project for all interested parties, indicates the commitment of internal resources, and serves as a data entry form for OSR. The OSR-1 should be signed by the principal investigator (PI), co-principal investigators, relevant department chair, and dean (if required) or center director before it is submitted to OSR. These endorsements provide assurance that the proposal and any associated commitment of resources have been reviewed and approved. If more than one PI is involved in the project, all appropriate chairs, deans, and center directors should sign the OSR-1 form. Because the OSR-1 is used as a data entry form for OSR's proposal and award database, it is important that all sections are completed prior to submission. No proposal will be approved and endorsed by OSR without a completed and endorsed OSR-1.
