OE Team:

Objective:

  • Streamline the setup process for federal, industry and non-profit sponsored projects.

Project Dates: March 2019-January 2021

Project Status: In April 2020, the Office of Sponsored Research began rolling out the playbook (federal and non-profit) and engagement model across campus, with the industry playbook forthcoming. More details can be found on the Office of Sponsored Research website.
