Who is eligible to serve as principal investigator?
Faculty members that are on a tenure track position are qualified to serve as well as certain non-tenure track faculty who are considered to be on long-term lines. Members of the University’s professional staff may also act with the approval of the appropriate Chair(s), Dean(s), and Vice Chancellor/Chancellor. Deans, Department Chairpersons and other administrators may serve especially if it is specifically required by the agency. However, senior level administrators should limit their cumulative effort to no more than 25%.
