How Can We Help?
Pre-Award
The Pre-Award team within Sponsored Projects provides comprehensive services to support faculty and staff throughout the lifecycle of proposal development and submission. Our team partners with researchers to ensure proposals are competitive, compliant, and aligned with institutional, sponsor, and regulatory requirements. We are dedicated to facilitating high-quality research by minimizing administrative burden and maximizing proposal success.

Award Management
The Award Management team within Sponsored Projects provides critical support for the review, negotiation, and acceptance of sponsored awards. Our team ensures that agreements are accurately executed, compliant with institutional and sponsor requirements, and ready for project initiation. We coordinate closely with principal investigators, campus partners, and external collaborators to manage agreements, secure required signatures, and issue subawards. By establishing clear terms and conditions at the outset, we enable a smooth transition from award acceptance to project implementation.

Post-Award
The Post-Award team within Sponsored Projects provides essential services to ensure effective financial and administrative management of externally funded awards. Our team works in collaboration with principal investigators, department administrators, and central finance offices to support compliance, accountability, and stewardship of sponsored funding throughout the life of the award. We are committed to promoting transparency, financial integrity, and compliance to support the successful execution of sponsored research and programs.
