Limited Submission Programs
Limited submission programs are those for which funding agencies restrict the number of nominations or proposals a university may submit for consideration for an award. The University of Texas at Austin, therefore, must internally screen all eligible and interested nominees to determine which will represent the university in the regional, national or international competitions.
Below is a list of limited submission programs in which UT currently competes. Included are deadlines for internal review, required OSP deadlines and the final deadlines of the awarding agency. Researchers must contact their Dean’s or ORU Director’s office to ensure that deadlines at that level of review are met. Please note: This list is not exclusive nor exhaustive, since new programs are developed and existing programs change. If a UT researcher intends to submit for a limited submission program not on this list, he/she must contact Courtney Frazier in the Office of Sponsored Projects to secure authorization to submit on behalf of The University of Texas at Austin.
Documents required by VPR are listed for each internal competition. Potential nominees must ensure that they are aware of any additional requirements of the awarding body beyond the VPR internal competition. In all cases, requirements for internal review will mirror the requirements of the awarding body to reduce duplication or extraneous paperwork. Unless stated otherwise, all required documentation should be submitted electronically (preferably as a .pdf) to limitedsub@austin.utexas.edu by the posted deadline.
It is the responsibility of the researcher and nominating body to ensure that all eligibility guidelines are met prior to submission for internal review by the VPR.
Every effort will be made to maintain current and accurate information within this list; however, the awarding agency’s posted information remains the final authority.
If you have any questions, please contact Courtney Frazier at limitedsub@austin.utexas.edu or 512-471-6424.
