The Office
of Research and Sponsored Projects (ORSP) is the central unit
within the Office of Research Administration dedicated to advancing
the University’s mission of packaging transmitting and leveraging
knowledge. ORSP accomplishes its purpose by assisting the University
community in obtaining the proper tooling and in the identification,
and acquisition of external funds. While ORSP functions in sundry
areas, it principally operates in three arenas; contracts and
grants administration; information services; and training and
development.
