Subject: Application and Process: 2015-16 CEHHS Research Equipment Requests
A strategic goal of the College of Education, Health and Human Sciences is to enhance research. As
such, it is time to develop the 2015-16 funding list for research equipment. These funds are
specifically for the purpose of repairing, replacing or purchasing new equipment or supplies to
advance the College of Education, Health and Human Science research agenda and for which
funding is not available through other means such as Laboratory Modernization grants.
 Please seek quotes that are accurate relative to the timeframe that is provided. In those cases
where purchases are greater than $5,000 dollars, the Purchasing Department may need to be
consulted so please plan accordingly.
 Department Chairs: Please review your projects and priorities and submit a separate form for
each project that should be considered during the 2015-16 year.
 All projects must use the attached Research Equipment request form. The form is also
available in Word format on the CEHHS college website at:
http://www.uwstout.edu/ehh/index.cfm. It is listed under the heading FUNDING
OPPORTUNITIES.
 Submit list of department projects, ranked in priority order, along with research equipment
requests forms electronically to Rose McLean mcleanr@uwswtout.edu by October 1, 2015.
 Awards are anticipated to be under $10,000 dollars.
 Recipients will be notified of awards by mid-October.
