Internal EOI for external research funding applications

The internal expression of interest (EOI) process is required whenever an external funding body restricts the number of applications that can be submitted by the one institution in the same round/year.

The internal EOI process ensures that researchers have an equal opportunity to apply for schemes that place a limit on application numbers. Through internal assessment, the EOI process also ensures that the most competitive application(s) are submitted by the University.

EOI process

Research Services will advertise the scheme internally through the research-info email list and outline the EOI process with due dates.

  1. Complete an EOI template form
  2. Submit the form to Research Services.

Research Services distributes EOIs to Colleges and/or peer reviewers for assessment.

Once assessments have been returned, Research Services advises applicants of outcomes.
