ORCA is pleased to provide support to facilitate external expert reviews of extramural grant proposals.

(For internal grant proposal review, please consider reaching out to the UNO Writing Center.) This type of peer review is valuable. Your proposal will benefit from critical feedback similar to that provided by a panel review and you will have the opportunity to address potential criticisms prior to proposal submission.

To take full advantage of this service, please request expert external review at least six weeks in advance of the proposal submission date. When you make your request, you will be asked to provide a list of at least four experts who, in your opinion, will provide objective, critical feedback regarding your proposal draft.

Reviewers are usually allowed two weeks to provide feedback, which means you should plan to have a draft ready for expert external review no less than one month prior to the submission date. Draft documents that may be included in the package sent for external expert review typically include:

  • Abstract or Project Summary
  • Project Narrative
  • Budget
  • Biographical Sketches
  • Introduction (if the proposal is a resubmission)

To request this service, please contact Dr. Sara Myers at samyers@unomaha.edu.
