Large Scale Government Grants
If interested in one of these grants, do not submit a proposal directly, but go through OGCA, and be sure to attend to any limited submission policies . Many grants limit the number of submissions an institution can submit; in these cases you'll need to contact Melinda LeLacheur, who is the Administrative Assistant to the Director in the Office of Research Affairs, to ensure that your proposal can be considered as one of those going forward from UMass. Even if you've talked to someone in OGCA or OCFR, the Office of Research Affairs needs to be informed as well.
