Grant and Contract Support

The Office of Research & Sponsored Programs (ORSP) supports the submission of sponsored project proposals. All requests for extramural funding require institutional approval prior to submission.

To avoid delays, Principal Investigators (PIs) must follow the procedures outlined in RSP.020.01 “Grant Submission Process.” Key steps include:

• Submit a Notification of Intent to Apply for Extramural Funding as early as possible.
• The PI prepares the proposal according to sponsor requirements.
• Five (5) business days before the sponsor deadline, the PI submits a Proposal Transmittal Form along with the full proposal, budget, and required documents.
• The proposal will be reviewed by:
  • Department Chair
  • ORSP
  • Finance
  • Other applicable offices (e.g., Facilities, Library, Student Affairs, Financial Aid)
  • Executive Administration
• Submission of the proposal will only be allowed after Executive Administration approval is received.
