FAQs

 

Any professorial faculty in the College of Agricultural Sciences who have at least 0.2 FTE paid for on Agricultural Experiment Station (AES) funds are required to join one of these projects.


If you’re not sure if this requirement applies to you, please contact your unit leader or reach out to our AES staff at aesresearch@oregonstate.edu.

 

 

Lists of the current Hatch collaborative and Multistate research projects can be found here.

 

 

Put simply, these projects have two requirements:

  1. Annual project reporting
  2. Acknowledgement of USDA-NIFA funding

For more details about these requirements, see this section of the Hatch and Hatch Multistate Research Manual.

 

 

The Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station (OAES) provides up to $1,500 in travel support funds for qualifying faculty.

 

To find out whether you qualify, see our Multistate travel policy.  For additional guidance, please see our travel support funds tip sheet.

 

 

Broadly speaking, our Hatch and Hatch Multistate funding is only used to fund a portion of faculty salaries.

 

The exception to this are:

  • Travel support funds for Multistate projects/activities.
  • OSU Hatch collaborative project team funds.

Our information on each of these is available in their respective policy documents. 

 

 

 

It may be answered in our manual, which includes more detailed information on the topics we cover in the FAQs, as well as others. We will continue to expand the FAQs, so your question may soon be answered here.

If you can't find your answer in any of the resources on this website, please reach out to aesresearch@oregonstate.edu and we'll do what we can to help.
