Congratulations to those who received grants in June! Thanks to all of their talents and hard work, as of June 30, 2022, WSU researchers under Academic Affairs have submitted proposals budgeting a total of $95,428,904, received $41,026,107 in awards, and generated $3,560,319 in indirect cost recovery for FY2022.As announced later in this newsletter, Brenda Achey has taken over the role of Associate Director of Post-Award for the Office of Research in Academic Affairs, while Judi McBroom concentrates on her role as a Senior Grant Administrator. Judi provided great leadership and expertise during a time of significant transition, and now looks forward to focusing on the awards management of her specific researchers, and spending more time with her family. In addition to thanking Judi for setting the Associate Director position on a positive path, I also thank Traci Shepherd and Md Gofur for working as a team with Judi to perform the leadership responsibilities for the Post-Award team on an interim basis, before this Associate Director position was finalized in December. The entire post-award team benefits from the expertise and direct oversight of Michelle Locke, Controller of WSU.Starting with today's introduction to Brenda, we will provide a new vignette each month to help you get to know all of those who serve you in the Office of Research, and their specific roles. Good luck to all of you in your research efforts over the next month.
Coleen Pugh, Vice Provost for Research

WSU International Travel Notice
The summer is here, along with loosening international travel restrictions at both the federal and state levels. This has brought a significant upswing in international travel requests.
As a reminder, there are mandatory campus-wide (including all of Industry & Defense Programs) policies regarding practices for international travel. These policies apply to WSU personnel such as students and full- and part-time employees at all levels, as well as independent contractors, and apply if you are:
- Traveling on WSU-related business, research, or funds,
- Traveling with any WSU-owned asset such as laptop or equipment,
- Traveling with plans to connect back to WSU-owned or operated networks, servers, files, or folders,
- Traveling with plans to login or use WSU-owned e-mail while abroad, or
- Traveling which is sponsored in any way by foreign governments, institutions, or entities.
If your international travel falls under one of these above categories, it is required that you submit a travel authorization request through Chrome River and submit a Travel Authorization form to exportcontrols@wichita.edu at least 30 days prior to your planned departure. Last-minute requests cannot be guaranteed for approval. For IDP personnel, please note that you must first receive an approval from the Export Controls & Compliance office prior to your acquiring a loaner laptop from NIAR IT.
Please see the links below for further information and resources, and reach out to the Travel Office at wsutraveloffice@wichita.edu, or James Elliott, Export Control & Compliance Officer, at exportcontrols@wichita.edu with any questions.
- International Information, Policies, and Travel Authorization Form
- Travel Office Information, Policies, and Chrome River login
What this means for you:
- Protect yourself from criminal and civil liability by declaring all international travel with the Export Control & Compliance Office 30 days before your trip.
- Export Control regulations impact software, email, information, and remote access differently than what most people expect. These processes help ensure we are doing everything the right way and catching relevant instances that may only apply on a case-by-case basis.
- Failure to properly declare travel could mean barring all access while traveling.
