Project Administration
Transfer of the Principal Investigator
When a principal investigator on a sponsored project transfers from The Ohio State University to another institution and desires to transfer an active sponsored project to the new institution or organization, the principal investigator must:
- obtain agreement, in writing, from his/her department and college to transfer the project to the new institution
- receive assurance from the new institution that it will accept the sponsored project(s)
The Research Foundation may be required to formally relinquish the award back to the agency before it can be awarded to the new institution.
It may be necessary for the new institution to submit a new application to the sponsor for support of the project before it can be awarded to the new institution.
