Grants & Contracts Administration (GCA)

We are here to assist faculty and staff with proposal budget preparation, proposal review, award negotiation and financial administration of extramural support according to sponsor regulations and guidelines.

How We Can Help You

As early as possible in the grant/proposal cycle, a specific grant officer from the Grants & Contracts Administration office staff is assigned to be involved in all aspects of the funding cycle for a particular award, including proposal preparation, award negotiation, monitoring, and reporting. The assignment of a grants officer is made based on the identity of the potential sponsor, i.e., federal, commercial, foundation, and the type of agreement cost reimbursable or fixed price, etc.
