FY27 Internal Seed Grants Update

by Justin Marmolejo

Hello everyone, Strategic Research Initiatives reached out and provided the following update. Please reach out to Lindsey Lepovitz directly if there are any questions. The FY27 programs will be announced by the end of the week, and faculty will not be required to complete a NOI through our Routing Form platform. However, faculty will continue to submit a NOI through InfoReady. SRI will submit a list of NOIs submitted to the RAs as each deadline passes for awareness. If faculty need help with budgets, they will be directed to their RA Team. When awards are made, SRI will submit the information to Research IT so all the respective dashboards can be updated for reporting purposes. Thanks, Justin Justin Marmolejo Assistant Director | Ex Officio Chair, Staff Senate<https://www.utsa.edu/staffsenate/about.html>, EAC Alternate Rep<https://www.utsystem.edu/sites/employee-advisory-council> Office of Sponsored Projects The University of Texas at San Antonio One UTSA Circle San Antonio, TX 78249 O: 210.458.7049 utsa.edu [https://www.utsa.edu/_files/images/email-sigs/ut-san-antonio-regental-log...]
