Before you embark on a research project, you will want to find out if you are eligible to serve as a principal investigator (also called project director).

You should also become familiar with the Proposal Submission Timelines Chart [pdf], which provides critical milest一个s for quality proposal submissions.

For your reference, we have also created a 研究基金会 Glossary should you come across unfamiliar terminology, abbreviations, and acronyms.

项目类型

Principal investigators will fall into 一个 of two research categories: sponsored or 自立项目.

赞助项目: External Funding: These are research endeavors, service projects, and other specific initiatives funded by an external sponsoring organization.
自立项目: These projects are generally underwritten by the 研究基金会 or self-funded through registration, user, or service fees. Examples include conferences and faculty 发展.

Many things happen behind the scenes before, during, and after a research endeavor. Each milest一个 brings you 一个 step closer to a successful project.
