Policy

1. All equipment purchased on grants on which the Principal Investigator or Project Director is a faculty member in the College of Nursing is the property of the college.
2. Purchase of Equipment
3. Maintenance of Equipment
4. Disposition of Equipment After Termination of the Grant Period
   
   After a grant has ended, equipment remains with the PI/PD for a period of six months unless s/he chooses to place it in general use earlier, unless it is actively being used by the PI or designee for a CON related purpose, or unless negotiated otherwise with the CON Assistant Dean for Administration. Once placed into the general pool, the PI/PD will have priority standing for any subsequent use of that equipment.
5. Policy for Disposition of Equipment for Faculty Leaving CON
   
   When a faculty member who is or has been a PI/PD leaves the CON, equipment purchased remains with the College unless negotiated otherwise with the CON Assistant Dean for Administration. Active investigators must request the transfer of essential research equipment to the new university. University of Nebraska Policy will be followed. A section on the disposition of grant purchased equipment is part of the CON Exit Procedures.
6. General Use Equipment
   
   All general use equipment is inventoried and available for use either through the NNRC for research equipment or a division learning center for educational equipment. Computers are the responsibility of the Workstation Specialist.
