Occasionally,  it becomes necessary to change the Principal Investigator/Project Director of a grant. The request should originate from the Department Head or Dean/Unit Director, and be routed through the appropriate channels within the PI's college to the Office of Sponsored Programs at sponsored.programs@wku.edu.

Your request (preferably sent by email) should include the agency project number, current principal investigator (PI) name, project title, WKU 6 digit grant index number, new PI contact information and vita and approvals from the new principal investigator, Department Head and Dean's/Unit Director's office. The letter/email should also include a clear outline of the new PI's qualifications to lead the program and accomplish the objectives as outlined in the original proposal.
