Any NanoIGERT supply or travel expense purchase must first be approved by the Administrative Fellow for the IGERT. Important note: If you make a purchase or incur charges from an internal University vendor, such as the IT Characterization Facility, (CharFac) the Nano Fabrication Center, or any other lab, tool shop, etc., you must provide a receipt or an email to the Administrative Fellow for the IGERT in order for the charge to be approved.

In the CharFac, a new system for logging in and tracking charges is currently being implemented. You should be able to print out CharFac charges you have incurred at the end of each month and email it to the Administrative Fellow for the IGERT.
