The Office of Sponsored Programs (OSP) provides administrative support to faculty in their pursuit of funding for research and scholarly activity while ensuring compliance with federal, university and private sponsor regulations, terms and conditions.
Government regulations, funding sources, and methods by which proposals are submitted are all undergoing rapid change. OSP operates in a dynamic environment and serves as the coordination point for all university grant proposals and research protocols.
OSP's pre-award services staff help to identify funding sources, assist in the preparation of proposal budget details, facilitate the administrative review and approval process, and review and negotiate contracts and agreements.
