Office of Sponsored Programs

The Office of Sponsored Programs (OSP) plays a critical role in supporting the research activities of the faculty. We help identify potential funding sources and match funding opportunities with the research interests and expertise of our faculty.

OSP is the key entity that assists and guides faculty in preparing and submitting research grant and contract proposals to federal, state, and municipal funding agencies as well as to industry and other organizations that provide support for research. We have oversight with regard to all governmental and institution compliances. Once an award is received, we also issue any associated subcontracts and consulting agreements, as well as setting up the account internally. We also accept and manage subawards that our faculty receive from other institutions. OSP is responsible for any modifications to the grant or subaward after award.
