IEEE Grant Administration

IEEE Grant Administration activities break down into two categories - Pre-Grant Award and Post-Grant Award.  Two different IEEE departments support these activities.

IEEE Development Office is responsible for pre-grant award activities. Assistance is available for all IEEE employees and volunteers with:

• identifying funding agencies
• understanding and following funding agencies guidelines
• reviewing/editing proposal for completeness and consistency with the IEEE mission
• using grant agency web portals such as NSF Fastlane and grants.gov
• obtaining required IEEE approval per the IEEE Financial Operations Manual (PDF, 271 KB) FOM.7.G
• submitting and tracking grant proposal
   

IEEE Controllers Office oversees post-grant award administration. Assistance is provided with:

• understanding and following funding agencies grant terms and conditions
• processing expenses associated with a grant
• submitting financial reports to the funding agency
• requesting no cost extensions
• coordinating OMB Circular A-133 Audit

 IEEE Post-Grant Award Procedures provides further information.

A grant is a type of financial assistance awarded for the conduct of research or other program as specified in the grant proposal.  Grants are typically awarded by government agencies, and private and corporate foundations.

The U.S. Internal Revenue Services (IRS) defines a charitable contribution as a payment with the following criteria: the contributor must intend the payment to be a gift; the contribution must be in excess of the value of any benefit the donors receives in return; and the recipient organization must be qualified by the U.S. IRS to receive gifts.  Charitable contributions are typically received from individuals and corporations. Contributions may be designated to the areas of interest to the donor.

The IEEE Development Office is responsible for coordinating all charitable contributions on behalf of IEEE and the IEEE Foundation.  Contact the IEEE Development Office by telephone: +1 732 562 3915 and by e-mail: donate@ieee.org.
