P3-R1 Grant Matching Program

The P3-R1 Initiative Overview and Purpose

The University of Idaho is investing an additional $3 million of institutional funds annually in its efforts to increase research productivity and expand the number of doctoral degrees awarded. This funding, enabled by a public-private partnership on the university’s energy infrastructure, is named the P3-R1 Initiative. 

P3-R1 funding will be deployed through three mechanisms:

  • Matching competitive externally funded grants
  • Matching new, externally funded endowed fellowships
  • Strategic initiatives

The purpose of this investment is to incentivize change and incentivize actions that will:

  • Significantly increase the award of research/scholarship doctoral degrees at U of I
  • Significantly increase the amount of externally funded research at the U of I
  • Increase the effective F&A rate of externally funded research at U of I

The P3-R1 Grant Matching Program

The bulk of P3-R1 funding will be deployed as a match on newly awarded, externally funded grants, as described below.

  • All matches on new awards will be initiated by a request from the lead PI on the award to ORED, by filling out the P3RI Award Form on InfoReady Review.
  • The P3R1 Committee (Chris Nomura, Brad Ritts, Jerry McMurtry, Ginger Carney, Michael Parrella, Dennis Becker, Brooke Blevins, Suzie Long and Sean Quinlan) meet monthly to approve match distribution.
  • The P3R1 Committee will consider adjustments to the programs, such as match ratios, as the program progresses.
  • The P3R1 Committee may consider allowing reallocation of P3R1 funding from doctoral students to postdocs or vice versa on a case-by-case basis.
  • Matches will be made on first-come basis until funds are committed ; at any time and without notice, matches may be suspended due to availability of funding.
  • When adjustments to the program are made, including eligibility and award ratios, only new awards will be eligible for the new program levels.
  • Awards are at the discretion of the P3R1 Committee and VPRED
  • P3R1 matches will be limited to a maximum of 50% of the total F&A in the sponsored award budget, ORED may adjust this limit at any time. 

Doctoral Research Assistantships

  • One (1) doctoral graduate assistantship for every two (2) fully-funded externally-funded doctoral research assistantships fellowship (a 1:2 match: external ratio)
    1. Grant must include full federally negotiated on-campus, industry, or Ag/Forestry experiment station F&A or USDA-limited F&A of 42.5% (on certain USDA grants); grants with off-campus and reduced F&A rates are not eligible.
    2. The award must have a minimum of four (4) doctoral student-years fully-funded to qualify (e.g. 2 students for 2 years, 4 students for 1 year minimum)
    3. To qualify grant must support full stipend, tuition and fees for all graduate students. Support in the match award will match levels in the externally-funded assistantships

Postdoctoral Fellowships

  • One (1) Two-Year Postdoctoral Fellowship is provided to all NSF CAREER grant recipients as well as other prestigious early-career grants (such as DARPA Young Faculty Awards).
  • One (1) Two-Year Postdoctoral Fellowship to all PIs who receive an NIH R01 as an assistant professor or within one (1) year of promotion to associate professor.
  • One (1) Postdoctoral Fellowship for every fully funded externally funded postdoctoral fellowship.
    1. Grant must include full federally negotiated on-campus, industry, or Ag/Forestry experiment station F&A or USDA-limited F&A of 42.5% (on certain USDA grants); grants with off-campus and reduced F&A rates are not eligible.
    2. The award must have a minimum of one (1) postdoc-year of support to qualify
  • One (1) Two-Year Postdoctoral support for PIs with at least 4 fully funded Ph.D. students on a single new grant award, such as a large training grant.
    1. Grant must include full federally negotiated on-campus, industry, or Ag/Forestry experiment station F&A or USDA-limited F&A of 42.5% (on certain USDA grants); grants with off-campus and reduced F&A rates are not eligible.
    2. Grant must fund at least 4 graduate students in each year of the grant and grant program must be at least 36-months.
