What cost sharing has already been committed and from what sources (example: Department, College, etc.)?

What other sources of cost sharing are you pursuing?

In the context of your scholarly research and creative activity or that of the group you oversee, briefly describe how the proposed effort will enhance/grow your work and especially position you to seek larger funding opportunities in the future. Your statement should include a rationale as to why the University should invest in this project via the provision of cost sharing. *

IMPORTANT: Effective 1 July 2018, all cost sharing requests must be accompanied by a statement, not to exceed 200 words, that explains how the University's investment in the proposed project will advance the scholarly program of the principal investigator or research group, and also contribute to advancing the University's research program more broadly. Issues to be considered include but are not limited to, in arbitrary order: positioning for additional, especially larger external funding, including center-level grants; obtaining funding from sources not previously pursued, especially Federal mission agencies and private companies; developing partnerships with external organizations, especially national laboratories, prestigious foundations, top-tier universities, and private companies; developing and commercializing intellectual property; contributing to economic development; leveraging existing assets such as facilities, research centers and academic programs; strengthening institutional strategic areas of emphasis; and enhancing individual and institutional scholarly reputation nationally and internationally. The quality and pertinent detail included in this statement will be considered in the evaluation of your cost sharing request.
