Use of Self-Authored Instructional Material Approval Form

During the DEPA reporting process, disclosers are asked to certify that department approval has been obtained for self-authored instructional material that is required in classes taught at CU. Copies of this approval form remains housed with the discloser and department (if required); it is not submitted to the COIC Office.

Affiliations with non-U.S. entities require special considerations. The COIC disclosure form solicits this information. All such affiliations must be reported during the application of federally sponsored projects, and the Export Control Office must be contacted for affiliations involving federally sanctioned/embargoed countries. Federal notices can provide additional information.
