Checklist for Investigators Leaving the University

Investigators leaving the University should consult with the relevant administrator(s) for their school and department to plan the relocation. Contact the Office of Sponsored Programs if you need assistance in identifying these individuals.

Faculty members and other Principal Investigators departing the University must complete this online form as far in advance as possible. Completion of this form will alert the relevant University offices, which will be in contact to assure that your research at the University is terminated appropriately. In addition to completing this form, the departing investigator must also notify their primary department administrator well in advance of their departure.

Principal Investigators, or other responsible individuals, must ensure that collaborators (including staff members and trainees they supervise) archive research records on University repositories prior to departure.

Please review additional guidelines below and this downloadable checklist (PDF).
