Occasionally, it is necessary to change the Principal Investigator (PI)/Project Director (PD) of an awarded grant or contract. This may be the result of a PI withdrawing completely from a project, taking a leave or sabbatical for a continuous period of three (3) months or more, or at the request of University leadership.

大多数联邦赞助商要求受赠人在奖励通知书中命名的PI或其他关键人员进行任何更改之前将其通知他们，并批准向PI或其他关键人员提出的任何替代安排，或者在此类更改可以使用之前提出的其他关键人员实施。部门应参考裁决的条款和条件，以确定在没有原始PI的情况下保留奖励的发起人。通常，赞助商保留终止赠款的权利，如果尚未寻求休假的批准，或者不接受替换PD/PI或关键人员。

当赞助商需要事先批准,这样的要求uests should be sent in writing to Sponsored Projects Administration for review and approval before they are submitted to the sponsor. Contact your Pre-award Sponsored Projects Specialists for assistance.
