Grant Writing External grants and contracts are sought to augment and enhance the educational programs of Fairmont State University. The purposes of the external support must be compatible with the overall mission and goals of the university and must not obligate the university beyond its capacity to conform to their terms. The Office of Sponsored Grants Accounting is responsible for the overall coordination of grants and contracts for the institution. The Office of Sponsored Grants Accounting in coordination with Vice President of Finance and Facilities also disseminates general grant information, may oversee major grant administration, approves and processes grant request forms, provides feedback regarding
grant proposals, assists with budget construction and review, and submits invoices/reports as required by the granting agencies. 60 Faculty and administrative staff developing grant proposals shall consult with the Office of Sponsored Grants Accounting and the Vice President of Finance and Facilities regarding the advisability of the project and the correct preparation of a grant budget for the proposal. The Vice President for Institutional Advancement is also available to assist faculty in acquiring funding from private sources, including grants from foundations and corporations. The staff in the Office of Institutional Advancement can help faculty identify prospective funding sources and assist in the development of a targeted proposal. In addition to the review process of the Office of Sponsored Grants Accounting, all funding requests to private sources—including foundations, corporations, non-governmental organizations and individuals—must be coordinated through the Office of Institutional Advancement in order to maintain a coordinated fundraising effort for the benefit of the institution. Final grant proposals and budgets must be completed at least two weeks before the deadline for submission. Institutional approval from the Office of Sponsored Grants Accounting and the Vice President of Finance and Facilities is required before the grant can be submitted. The most recent version of the required approval forms (Grant Pre-Certification Form and Final Grant Proposal Certification/Submission Form) and the Internal Approval Process guidelines are available from the web site:https://mycampus.fairmontstate.edu/group/mycampus/accounting.
