Principal Investigator Eligibility
CU Boulder is responsible for complying with all regulations and requirements guiding sponsored projects. In order to ensure that such projects are conducted by those with the necessary skills, training, and University affiliations, PIs and Co-PIs must have an active appointment at CU Boulder in accordance with CU’s PI Eligibility Chart.
Depending on your appointment type, you may need to obtain approval from your Department Chair, Institute Director, or from the Dean of your assigned College to serve as a PI or Co-PI. Your Proposal Analyst will need email approval on file prior to proposal submission.
