* CenCITT project accounts include cost share such as cash contributions, academic release time, and overhead reduction as validated by the research administrations of the consortium institutions. Many of the projects include additional cost sharing which are not a part of the CenCITT project accounts. Examples include in-kind and parallel activities at sponsoring organizations, visiting engineers, and parallel projects where multiple accounts/sponsors are administered by the same PI. This additional cost share is valued at over $716,000.
