What Is the Sponsored Projects Office?

Sponsored Projects Administrators help faculty with the mechanics of getting research proposals through internal approvals (via Kuali Research) and submitted to the sponsor. Upon award, we represent the university in research contract negotiations and facilitate award setup. We coordinate any contractual needs during the course of each project and ensure close-out requirements are met.
