Applications to the Employee Initiatives Grant are reviewed by the Employee Initiatives Grant Allocations Committee (EIGAC), which is made up of MUSC employees from across the enterprise. Committee members review each proposal and assign one overall score based on the established criteria and scoring guidelines. Projects are evaluated for mission alignment, impact, feasibility, and funding.
