Sponsored Programs

pre-post

The team is committed to delivering outstanding service to our customers in support of their research portfolio

We are here to assist with internal budget models, templates for justifications, to coordinate with other units on campus and external subawards (as necessary), provide review of all documents per sponsor guidelines and we serve as your liaison with Sponsored Program Administration (SPA) to submit proposal packages for institutional approval. Upon notification of an awarded proposal, please work with your unit business office for post-award services.

Proposal Submission

TBH-BSC Intent to Submit or Participate on a Grant Proposal Form
Use this to submit your intent to submit a funding proposal (internal or external) or if you are co-participating on a funding proposal.  All externally funded proposals MUST be routed through the TBH Business Service Center to Sponsored Programs (SPA) for review/approve prior to sponsor submission.  Please alert us as soon as possible regarding intent to ensure we have ample time to assist with the components of a complete proposal package.
