The following items are included:
_____ this completed PI Proposal Review Checklist;
_____ draft budget and budget justification, including cost share information;
_____ summary of scope of work or draft of abstract; and

• Funds from other UA accounts may offset missing IDC or tuition or buyout salary
• Significant Broader Impacts of the proposed research
• Potential for IP and patents to be generated
• Exceptional engagement of undergraduate or graduate students in research
• Special circumstances that make the project extraordinarily valuable to UA (e.g., untenured
faculty member, unusual research area, long term prospects, multidisciplinary project)

(c) that does not include academic year (buyout) salary will be reviewed by the Exec. VP/Chief Academic Officer or
Director(s) of Research. Based on management and budget decisions, the proposal may or may not be allowed to
