The Senior Vice President for Research (SVPR), in close communication with the college research deans and interdisciplinary consortia directors, is charged with implementing the Penn State Limited Submission Procedure.
Please contact limitedsubs@psu.edu should you have any questions or if you would like to receive a weekly digest of open limited submission opportunities.
