PLEASE CIRCULATE
Dear Colleagues,
LINKAGE INFRASTRUCTURE, EQUIPMENT AND FACILITIES - FOR FUNDING in 2008
The LIEF Funding Rules for funding commencing in
2008 are available on the ARC website at
<http://www.arc.gov.au/ncgp/lief/lief_default.htm>http://www.arc.gov.au/ncgp/lief/lief_default.htm.
Applicants for the Linkage Infrastructure,
Equipment and Facilities Scheme should download
and read the
<http://www.arc.gov.au/pdf/LIEF08_FundingRules.pdf>Funding
Rules and the
<http://www.arc.gov.au/pdf/LIEF08_instructions.pdf>Instructions to Applicants.
Please read the new Funding Rules carefully as
several sections have changed or been
clarified. Section 2 of the Funding Rules -
Changes from last year - will highlight the significant changes made.
ARC GAMS SYSTEM
Applicants will be required to complete the
on-line application form using the ARC Grant
Application Management System
(<https://gams.arc.gov.au/>GAMS). Instruction on
how to access a GAMS ID can be found on the
<http://www.anu.edu.au/ro/grants/ARC.php#gams>RO website.
ARC LIEF BUDGET FORM (APOLLO) - NEW
All applicants submitting an application for an
ARC LIEF scheme are required to complete an
<https://apollo.anu.edu.au/default.asp?pid=1948>ARC
LIEF Budget Form (for all ARC LIEF projects,
whether or not seeking University funding support
from the Major Equipment Committee (MEC), and
whether your application is ANU-led or externally-led).
The on-line ARC-LIEF Budget Form is used to
capture ANU administrative information about
ARC-LIEF applications. ARC-LIEF applications
will not be submitted by the ANU to the ARC
unless the Budget Form is completed before the Form Closing Date (below).
The information will assist the MEC to confirm
offers of funding for ARC-LIEF bids, and will
also be used by the Research Office to collect
collaborative data for the annual
inter-university ARC-LIEF collaboration
data-sharing. The information will also be used
to administer ARC-LIEF proposals requesting more
that $200K MEC funding, which require DVC approval on the advice of the MEC.
Opens: 1 April 2007
Closes: 5.00pm 30 April 2007
Access:
<https://apollo.anu.edu.au/default.asp?pid=1948>https://apollo.anu.edu.au/default.asp?pid=1948
To log in, please use your HORUS details (Uni ID and password).
Please Note:
§ Once the form has closed, there is no possibility of further access.
§ Details may be changed between the time
of submission of the Budget Form, and the
submission of the final application, although it
is expected that, if possible, the ARC-LIEF
Budget Form will be in the 'ball park' of the final application.
Should it be MEC Major Equipment Grant, or should it be ARC-LIEF?
Think carefully about which grant is the most
appropriate for your needs. Grants which could
be funded through ARC-LIEF will not be eligible
for funding through MEC. Please read carefully
the Guidelines for MEC at:
<http://www.anu.edu.au/ro/grants/MEC.php#forms>http://www.anu.edu.au/ro/grants/MEC.php#forms
Sources of Advice and Assistance
Content: It is expected that at least one
academic colleague or mentor read your
application prior to submission to
CoSRO. Possible readers and sources of advice
include senior colleagues, current and previous
ARC grant holders, and/or Heads of Schools/Departments.
Finance: Financial advice relative to your
budget should be sought from your local finance
officer. This includes advice on salary levels,
on-costs, and standard purchasing and/or travel rates.
Grant Scheme: Advice on grant schemes,
University research policies, and procedures are
available from your relevant Research Management Officer.
CoSRO SUBMISSION DEADLINE: FRIDAY 4TH MAY at 10am
Note Apollo budget form deadline is 30th April.
All applications must be received by Friday the
4th of May as each application requires review
