Faculty Travel Authorization Form

Faculty Travel Authorization Form

Faculty should provide the Dean/Dean’s Office advance notice of any business travel that will utilize any University funding source.

For University-funded travel, faculty are encouraged to also seek pre-approval from the budget approver and supervisor by completing the form below. This allows the traveler and budget approver to agree on expected costs before travel is booked and facilitates approval and repayment of expense reimbursement post-travel. Travelers must obtain approval from their budget approver in advance of booking any upgrades or exceeding spending limits as defined by this policy for air travel, car rental, lodging, meals, and fees resulting from international travel.

The chartstring must be provided on the form. If you don’t know the digits include funding name, such as FRA or Meredith Funds.

All expenses should be reimbursed unless approval to use a procurement card is provided.

Email a completed Faculty Travel Authorization Form to Katie Lipp in the Dean’s office and Kristen Barnes, Associate Dean for Faculty Research, prior to 30 days from trip departure.  Travel-related expenses include transportation, hotels, meals, and registration fees.  All sections of the travel form must be completed and include the requested funding source with your submission.

The Dean’s Office will coordinate funding verification with the Budget Office and reply back to the submitter confirmation to proceed.
