Finding Funding

We make it easy for you to explore available grants and awards. We post and send alerts about new funding opportunities and maintain a list of databases.

Developing and Submitting Proposals

Winning grants and contracts is a highly competitive effort. Early planning and scrupulous attention to detail is crucial. Contact the Research Development team for assistance during proposal development. The OSP team partners with you to ensure on time successful proposal submissions. 

Proposal Routing and Approval

Before you submit your proposal to a sponsoring organization, Research Foundation staff can help ensure you've met all of the requirements.

Award Negotiation and Set-Up

After your award is finalized, we'll provide you training on our grant management system, set up purchasing accounts, and help you staff your project.

Managing Projects

Research projects have many moving parts. You focus on the scientific inquiry, and we'll handle the administrative and financial details for you.

Project Closeout

At the project's close, your sponsoring organization will require final reports and other deliverables. These could include technical documents and financial reports.

Engage with the Office of Sponsored Programs

The project lifecycle begins with a question or idea, and the process builds from there. We'll provide you a road map of what's ahead.
