(1) If Warwick is the lead institution, the School generally expects to see 15-25% PI time where the costs are recoverable.
(2) On projects with one or more Co-Is, the School generally expects to see 5–10% per Co-I, and to see a total for PI and Co-Is of at least 15% (e.g. PI 10%, Co-I 5%) where the costs are recoverable.
Example: Dr Bloggs start 01/10/14 6 months 10%
(3) For projects with experimental aspects, the School generally expects at least 10% workshop technician time where the costs are recoverable. If you require less than 10% for an experimental project you must provide a justification.
(4) For projects which utilise the cleanroom, the School generally expects to see a 20-40% cleanroom technician time included. You must provide justification if less than 20%.
