Request for Institutional Sharing of Indirect costs

All Norman and Tulsa campus EDGE proposals must formally request sharing of indirect costs to be eligible for submission. The cost sharing narrative must specifically address a) how the proposed EDGE effort will complement an existing program of externally sponsored research and b) lead to continued or new external funding.

Additionally, as described in the OU EDGE calendar (link), principal investigators requesting institutional sharing of indirect costs also must submit to OU a 5-page pre-proposal, the contents of which will be described in a subsequent email announcement. This pre-proposal will not be evaluated, rated or ranked for eligibility of submission other than approval of the indirect cost waiver. Faculty failing to submit the narrative may still submit an EDGE proposal but will have to identify sources for IDC recovery.
