Title
A-21 Grant Program for New Positions
Agencies
Virginia Tech (VT)
Description
The A-21 program for clerical and administrative support is intended to foster development of new research programs by providing for funding that cannot be directly charged to grants and contracts. The Office of Research is responsible for the distribution of these funds.
Funding requests can come forward for new A-21 funds from colleges, departments, and approved/chartered research centers. Employment classifications that may be considered for this funding include university and classified staff in clerical and fiscal areas. Proposed positions are expected to be salaried (faculty and wage positions are ineligible). Priority will be given to proposals that demonstrate the fostering and development of new and/or expanding areas of research.
Examples of appropriate initiatives to be supported by this funding include, but are not limited to, the following: A new administrative position for college-level grant-writing support services, or a new clerical or administrative assistant for a department of research center to support expanded research activities.
The amount available for FY15-16 is estimated to be $125,000 in direct salary costs to be distributed to support new proposals selected in this cycle. The associate deans for research and graduate studies group (CARS/CAGS) will be responsible for reviewing proposals for funding and recommending awardees to the associate vice president for research.
To provide A-21 funding for new initiatives, all current A-21 funds made in the prior fiscal year are being reduced by a 10-percent linear reduction per year over a 10-year time frame. This approach provides a pool for new allocations at the beginning of each fiscal year.
The deadline for proposal submission is March 18. Formal notification by letter will be made by May 15; the funding year begins July 1.
