Principal Investigator’s Request for Research Proposal
(faculty access only) The Principal Investigator's Request for Research Proposal is a portal for the uniform online submission of proposal requests. It gathers information to allow financial officers to plan for the deadlines of the proposal process. Faculty must complete and submit this brief online form at least 10 working days before the research proposal is due to the sponsor.
Graduate Student Research Evaluations
(advisor access only) Each semester, AeroAstro advisors must participate with their grad students in an evaluation of the student’s research. This process enables advisor and student to ensure that the student's research progress is satisfactory. The evaluation also incorporates the reporting system for the student’s 16.THG grade. It is accomplished via an online interactive application and in person.
