Initiative TitleOutreach to faculty and staff encouraging grant participation
Submitted in Previous Year(s)No
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale

Will explore new initiatives to attempt to interest faculty and staff in grant projects which might include: purchasing videos to be streamed on the grant web-page; workshop style trainings; purchasing wider-access funding source search licenses; and speakers from high successful grant programs. 

Consequences of this initiative not being funded

This is a modest first time initiative meant to attract interest in pursuing a grant to fund a desired project by faculty to staff. Many other factors affect the decision to apply or not, but this initiative is meant to allay fears that it is "too hard" or that a person is "not informed" enough to prepare a grant. 

Department GoalsAlong with faculty and staff, develop proposals for grant opportunities during the year as approved by college administrators.

Prioritization Notes

Level 4 (PBIE Committee)

There is a certain apprehension to do work in the area of grants by faculty and staff alike. This is a great area of opportunity. The cost of this initiative will go toward the purchase of videos, workshops and training material. During review of this initiative, as well as some others, the PBIE committee identified the need for SUNY Orange to plan better for the short and long term of having a grant, specifically managing the challenge of sustaining certain programs and levels of employment when the grant run out.
