Corporate and Foundation Relations Guidance Available for Some Sponsors’ Indirect Cost Policies

Many local and regional foundations that support research have policies regarding indirect costs for research projects. The Office of Corporate and Foundation Relations (CFR) maintains a list of organizations and their indirect costs policies along with guidance on whether an indirect costs waiver is needed. Research administrators and faculty are encouraged to review the list to assist with budget planning. Questions about the indirect cost list can be directed to pae-cfr@pitt.edu.
