Awards Team

The Awards team provides expert services during the contract negotiation and award acceptance process for incoming awards from non-profit sponsors and subawards/subcontracts from non-profit and federal grants. The Awards Team also supports investigators with submitting proposals (After-the-Fact proposals) when an award/Research Agreement was received before proposal preparation and Just-in-Time (JIT).

The Proposals and Grants team provides support during the proposal process. Learn more about the proposal process.
