Sponsored Research Award Notification
When your proposal has been selected for funding, the program manager or officer may contact the PI to advise him or her of the decision. This can occur weeks in advance of the formal agreement. OSRP must review and approve all awards on behalf of Illinois Institute of Technology, since awards are made to IIT and not to the individual Principal Investigator.
When OSRP receives official written notification of the award from the Sponsor, the award document is processed and sends a copy of the fully signed award document to Project Accounting. Project Accounting assigns the account number. They also handle invoices and prepare expenditure reports for the sponsor.
A copy of the full award documentation is also sent to the principal investigator for their files. After you have received the final award document, you should receive a notification from project accounting with your new account number.
If your award has been delayed by the sponsor for some reason, please complete an Advanced Expenditure Form and send it to OSRP.
