The CGI Hub specializes in concierge research development services and training aimed at enhancing the competitiveness of federal grant proposals. These specialized services are offered in conjunction with the pre-award services provided by the research grant offices within the colleges. 

Here's how it works: 

• Principal investigators (PIs) who work in colleges or on system campuses with dedicated research staff should contact their research office regarding their intent to submit a federal proposal and their need for research development services.
• The college or campus research office should then complete the CGI Hub Services form to request the needed CGI Hub services.
• The CGI Hub will reach out to the PI and the research office to set up a collaborative work plan that suits their needs.
• Those investigators who do not have a dedicated research office in their college or system campus should complete the CGI Hub Services form directly, and the CGI Hub team will follow up directly with the PI.

CGI Hub federal proposal development services target faculty and research administrators. Undergraduate and graduate students should contact their faculty mentors or the Office of National Fellowships and Scholar Programs for proposal development support.
