Proposal Development

 

The preparation of a competitive and successful grant proposal is a time consuming process. When you start to think about applying for a grant, please consult The Office of Sponsored Research (Staff). We are available to provide useful information on project ideas, to help identify funding sources, to answer any budget questions, and to clarify sponsor, college and institutional policies that could impact your grant/research proposal.
