Academic Innovation Grants – Reviewer Volunteer Form

Thank you for volunteering to serve as an Academic Innovation Grants reviewer!
You may find it helpful to review this year’s Evaluation Rubric (coming soon), which will be used to review the proposals within the Foundant platform.

Depending on the response, reviewers are assigned approximately 4-6 proposals each.
Past reviewers reported spending around 3-5 hours reviewing and providing feedback.
Applicants are also allowed to serve as reviewers.
Reviewers are not assigned “home campus” proposals, and are obligated to report any potential conflicts of interest.

Each proposal is reviewed by at least three peer reviewers. All proposals are ranked and then forwarded to the IIRC and SUNY OER Services for a secondary review which leads to funding recommendations to the Provost.

If you have any questions, please forward them to iitgrants@suny.edu.
