Non-Funded Proposal Development

All non-funded agreements that are research-related must be routed through the COE Research Office. Like a grant proposal, all non-funded agreements are processed through KR to the Office of Research Administration.

This includes, but not limited to, the following agreements:

Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
Memorandum of Agreement (MOA)
Data Use Agreements
Non-disclosure Agreements
Teaming Agreements

Some funded research projects made require a non-funded agreement with partners (e.g. school districts). Those would be routed through the COE Research Office. Please contact the COE Research Office if you have any questions.

The application, review and approval process can take a minimum of 4-6 weeks. Please plan accordingly.

To get started, complete a non-funded routing form (specific links below).
