Dear Ralph:

St. John's has someone in this capacity as well.  We are about 550 faculty
and a few graduate programs.

Our grantwriter is a retired department chair, who is expert at research
methodology.  We use her sporadically, but she is extremely productive and
right on the task when she's needed.  She is so valuable, but I can't
imagine another individual in this role at this institution.

I will be curious to hear how/if other offices use a person in this role,
and how you would select a person for this role.

Please contact off line if you want more info.

Best,
Betty Farbman
Office of Grants & Sponsored Research, St. John's University

Subject: [RESADM-L] Work flow patterns

I’ve been asked to contact 3-4 people who have positions as a
“grantwriter,” “grant development specialist” or similar positions at
institutions of similar size to my own. We’re a mid-sized university,
have about 600 faculty in seven colleges and a grad school, and do about
16 million/year in sponsored programs. Would like to discuss issues
concerning work flow, by phone or e-mail. Please reply off-list to
xxxxxx@isu.edu
