NSF
NSF: Collaborative Proposal vs. Proposal with Subawards óCollaborative proposals may be submitted to NSF in one of two methods: óas a single proposal, in which a single award is being requested (with subawards administered by the lead organization); óor by simultaneous submission of proposals from different organizations, with each organization requesting a separate award.
Proposal with Subawards óThe single proposal method allows investigators from two or more organizations who have developed an integrated research project to submit a single, focused proposal. A single investigator bears primary responsibility for the administration of the grant and discussions with NSF, and, at the discretion of the organizations involved, investigators from any of the participating organizations may be designated as co-PIs. óPlease note, however, that if awarded, a single award would be made to the submitting organization, with any collaborators listed as subawards.
Collaborative proposal óFor these proposals, the project title must begin with the words "Collaborative Research: ”. óThe lead organization's submission will include a Cover Sheet, Project Summary, Project Description, References Cited, Biographical Sketches, Budgets and Budget Justification, Current and Pending Support, and Facilities, Equipment and Other Resources for their organization.
