If your budget includes a request for URC funds to support course release, your application must include a formal, school-generated document signed by the applicant’s relevant Dean signifying both approval of release from the specific teaching responsibilities described in the application and of the amount of funding requested. Applications including a request for course release funds that lack supporting documentation with a Dean’s (and where relevant the Chair/unit leader’s) formal approval will not be considered.
