Office of Sponsored Research (OSR) Checklist

The Faculty of Dentistry and McGill University require that all applications for externally-funded grants and project agreements be accompanied by a completed and signed OSR checklist. The checklist must be submitted to the OSR prior to submitting the completed grant application to avoid delays in opening a fund, if the grant application is successful, and to ensure compliance with McGill policies. This includes those cases where the application can be submitted directly to the sponsor without having to pass through OSR.

Note: As a general rule, only tenured and tenure-track professors are eligible to apply for external research funding as the principal applicant. All other Faculty of Dentistry appointees should apply as Co-applicants.

1. Complete the OSR checklist. Additional instructions for completing the checklist can be found here.
2. Send the completed checklist and a near-final application package, including a budget, to the Dentistry research2.dentistry [at] mcgill.ca (Research Administrator) at least 2 days prior to the OSR’s internal deadline (see the specific funding announcement on the OSR site for the OSR deadline). The Research Administrator will obtain the Associate Dean of Research and Graduate Dental Education’s signature and return the signed checklist to the PI.
3. Submit the signed OSR checklist and application materials to the OSR contact for each grant.
