Grant Writing Services
I-DISC has developed a good relationship with two external grant writing consultants with specific experience that align with I-DISC research interests. I-DISC will support Lehigh faculty wishing to write a proposal on I-DISC approved initiatives and research areas by connecting the faculty with external grant writers and coordinating all administrative processes involved (agreements & payment).
Note – these grant writers do NOT write the actual proposal due to the scientific expertise required – but work closely with the PI & research group involved in the proposal to ensure they produce a clear & coherent proposal that describes their project & vision of the research. In addition, they can oversee the grant proposal process and ensure each specified criteria & format is adhered to. It is the responsibility of the PI & research group to work directly with the external grant writer & coordinate the final grant submission of the grant with the Office of Research & Sponsored Programs (ORSP). As soon as you are thinking of submitting a proposal remember to submit the form via ORSP website Intent to Submit a Proposal
