Those memebers that achieve these targets will be afforded priority status, including supplements to offset the costs, for the use of the UFSCC cores. UFSCC policy
Effective February 6, 2007: All faculty members with graduate student support included in their grant budget are expected to allocate a minimum of one third of the center IDC allocation (i.e. 2.5%) to COMEC on all new grant applications and on currently funded grants.
