Office of Research invites faculty to submit federal appropriations requests

The Office of Research is now accepting proposals for the annual federal appropriations request process. This is a unique opportunity for faculty across all campuses and locations to seek federal support for initiatives that align with university strategic priorities.

Faculty (tenure-track/tenured, research, clinical) are invited to submit projects for consideration. Only one application is allowed per principal investigator; however, investigators may participate on an unlimited number of applications as co-investigators.

Selected proposals may be included as part of Purdue’s formal request for federal appropriations funding, helping to shape national funding priorities while advancing the university’s mission.
