===Disposition of Equipment After Termination of the Grant Period=== | |||
<p style="max-width:70em !important; margin-left:3em; text-indent:0em;">After a grant has ended, equipment purchased by the grant becomes part of the general CON pool unless it is actively being used by the PI/PD or their designee for a CON related purpose or unless negotiated otherwise with the CON Director, Administration & Operations. Once placed into the general pool, the PI/PD will have priority for subsequent use of that equipment for six months.</p> | <p style="max-width:70em !important; margin-left:3em; text-indent:0em;">After a grant has ended, equipment purchased by the grant becomes part of the general CON pool unless it is actively being used by the PI/PD or their designee for a CON related purpose or unless negotiated otherwise with the CON Director, Administration & Operations.

===Disposition of Equipment for Faculty Leaving CON=== | |||
<p style="max-width:70em !important; margin-left:3em; text-indent:0em;">When a faculty member who is or has been a PI/PD leaves the CON, equipment purchased by their grant remains with the college unless negotiated otherwise with the CON Director, Administration & Operations. Active investigators must request the transfer of essential research equipment to a new institution. University of Nebraska policy will be followed with regard to this process. (Accounting Information Manual – Section I). A section on the disposition of grant purchased equipment is also part of UNMC Employee Separation Procedures ([[Employee Separation|UNMC Policy 1006]]).</p> | <p style="max-width:70em !important; margin-left:3em; text-indent:0em;">When a faculty member who is or has been a PI/PD leaves the CON, equipment purchased by their grant remains with the college unless negotiated otherwise with the CON Director, Administration & Operations.
