Research Planning Timeline


Faculty who are seeking funding for projects—including everything from spending a week or semester at the Folger Library or doing archival work in New Delhi to laboratory research—must plan ahead and work with staff from both The College of Arts and Sciences and Syracuse University’s Office of Sponsored Programs.

Approval for faculty research leaves must be sought 10 to 12 months before the leave begins. Planning for research funding must begin 12 to 18 months before the funding is needed.
