CCE Faculty:<br><br>As the spring semester comes to a close in a few weeks, we will be heading into a period where faculty and staff alike take time off during the summer months. <br>Despite the fact that we have many people in and out during the summer, our faculty historically submit numerous grant proposals during the summer months. <br>
In fact, we expect to submit 10-12 NSF career award submissions in mid-July alone.<br><br>With this in mind, please be mindful of how grant and contract submissions are handled in our college.<br><br>Thank you for your consideration.<br>
