The Resource Budget Commission was established in 1997 to meet unique needs within departments of Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ. In fact, funds for three critical areas were funded through the Resource Budget in previous years: campus network, computer upgrades in labs/library, and student printing.
RBC funds are now funding student projects, which can be academic in nature, such as junior or senior projects, annual projects (e.g., SAE Formula), conferences, or other student-initiated projects. Proposals must be written by students for student projects.
The deadlines for submitting proposals for student projects are NOON Monday, November 4, 2024 & NOON Monday, February 3, 2025. Only one proposal for each project can be submitted annually. The RBC Proposal form is available under Resource Budget Proposal to the right. The RBC Budget Template is also linked here and must be completed and submitted with the Proposal form. Awards will be announced approximately two weeks after each deadline, with a purchasing deadline of May 30, 2025 for all funded proposals. The maximum funding request from the Resource Budget Commission for each project is $20,000.
PROPERTY
