PROPOSAL DEVELOPMENT/PREAWARD
Once a decision has been reached to write a proposal for external funding, PRIOR APPROVAL MUST BE GIVEN to proceed. The Director of Student Learning and Research must give permission for the project before the proposal is written. The "Internal Review and Approval Form" should be completed and signed to indicate that the permission for the project has been granted. A copy of this form should be given to the Office of Research and Sponsored Programs.
ANY AND ALL Partnership grants (i.e. collaboration with another group such as the Choctaw Nation) MUST receive PRIOR APPROVAL before proposal work should begin. Please contact Dr. Charles Weiner at x 2202 for additional information.

You can get a copy of the application from SOSU’s website. Click on “faculty,” then “committees,” then finally the “Human Subjects Research Review Committee.” The form will be at the bottom of the page. Please complete this form and be sure to answer every question specifically by number. Include all supporting materials. The completed application should be sent to Dr. Brooks Flippen in the Department of Social Sciences, Administration 301. Any questions should be directed to Dr. Flippen at bflippen@sosu.edu or X2338. Thank you.
