Does IREE expect matching funds to be included in proposals?
Matching funds are not required up front, although these would be viewed in a favorable light, by demonstrating a partner’s strong commitment to the project. The most important considerations for IREE are a clear, viable exit strategy for securing other sources of support in the future; and demonstrable progress toward an exit strategy in the course of the project. • Are faculty salaries permitted in Large Grant or Seed Grant budgets? Inclusion of tenured/tenure-track faculty salaries is strongly discouraged but will be considered in exceptional cases, with a strong justification. • Can I make a request to exclude certain external reviewers from reviewing my proposal? Yes, if that is a concern, include that request after the section of the pre-proposal asking for potential reviewers.
