You may have received a separate email for the MIRC RFP earlier. Due dates for both are Nov 15^th. For Oregon researchers, both OMC and MIRC proposals need to be signed up to use the OSU DocuSign system and submitted to the Ag Research Foundation.

MIRC proposals need to be sent by PIs directly to the MIRC – the OMC or ARF will not forward proposals for you.

Please find attached a request for proposals to renovate in-person academic programs. To support the “every student graduates” goal in Prosperity Widely Shared, we will provide financial and consultative resources for units to re-envision academic programming to meet the needs of today’s learners, address technological advances and support workforce needs. We recognize that similar resources exist for Ecampus programming, and this program—the Academic Program Renovation Academy—will therefore focus on in-person programs. Please refer to the attachment for more detail or the website. Important upcoming dates:
