Meet your Match: Overview of Cost Sharing Issues in Grant Proposals

Date, Time & Location

  • 04/09/2008 – 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm

Summary

Cost sharing (or ”matching funds”) in proposals has become a timely topic for those submitting proposals and receiving grants and contracts. There has been increasing pressure from funding agencies to require cost sharing in order to leverage the funds they provide to projects. What is cost sharing? What is the difference between mandatory and voluntary cost sharing? If cost sharing is proposed, how does this affect the project once it is awarded? What are allowable and unallowable cost sharing items? These are just some of the questions that will be answered. Faculty and project staff involved in submitting proposals, as well as Deans and Department Chairs responsible for approving cost-sharing, will find this information helpful.
